What are some ways that libraries can leverage the Web to make their collections more broadly discoverable and accurately represented? This presentation, from CNI’s December 2014 member meeting, features speakers with experience using Linked Open Data and improved semantic data to enhance discoverability of and interactions with library collections on the Web. Tim Cole and Janina Sarol (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign), Ted Fons (OCLC), and Kenning Arlitsch (Montana State University) discuss the challenges they encountered and the knowledge they have gained in implementing new models for access and retrieval.
Exposing Library Collections on the Web: Challenges and Lessons Learned is now available online:
