Dear colleagues, In case of interest, here's a new article published in ALA Techsource ; Vol. 52, no. 1 (2016) 'Chapter 1. The Current State of Linked Data in Libraries, Archives, and Museums' https://journals.ala.org/ltr/article/view/5892/7446 Abstract: Erik T. Mitchell wrote Library Technology Reports (vol. 50, no. 5), "Library Linked Data: Research and Adoption," published in July 2013. This report revisits the adoption of Linked Data by libraries, archives, and museums, identifying current trends, challenges, and opportunities in the field. By looking at services and research-related large-scale projects, such as BIBFRAME and DPLA, the report describes a trajectory of adoption. It looks at the vocabularies, schemas, standards, and technologies forming the foundation of Linked Data as well as policies and practices influencing the community.
