1. Preface
Gallery, library, archive, and museum (i.e. GLAM or LAM)
have the privilege in their “tradition” for constructing
structured data (metadata).
Linked Open Data (LOD) provides a web environment for
LAM to curate & integrate internal & external resources.
Different kinds of data about the same object thus can
be created by distributed actors/agents, and then be
aggregated into a single LOD graph.
In short, LAM is benefited from adding value to their
metadata by linking to the LOD with previously unknown
& unexplored resources (e.g. other library sources, non-
library sources, and multiple domain knowledge bases,
etc. )

Some Recent Initiatives

1) Linked data is for technical interoperability;
2) open data is for legal interoperability;
3) the benefits for Library is to bring Library Data outside the
Library Wall, linking to the Web World

Rather going to the Vocabulary War in the LAM
community that I am not familiar with …. seeking
available tool development may work more positive
results.
Happy to hear that Getty is going to progress
themselves in LOD. (anticipated that the data will be
published under the ODC_BY 1.0 license; begin
with AAT and then to TGN, ULAN, and finally
CONA, from late 2013 through 2015.)
One exception: LODLAM Pattern /reminds me

LODLAM Patterns http://lodlampatterns.org
17
“The universe of methods for representing cultural
heritage resources is growing rapidly, despite the
multiple standards that already exist across the
library, archive, and museum domain.
These various standards may address common
problems, but there is little explicit coordination
among the solutions.
As Linked Data Principles increasingly allow us to
“mix and match” vocabularies, we need a new way
to understand the available techniques that solve
specific representation problems.”

Only 2 sessions notes are
listed in this official page.
However, there are several
notes within this website or
on other websites.
http://summit2013.lodlam.net/category/session-notes/
The same text fragment
(“session notes”) can be
annotated by different users,
and displayed annotations on
the same web page.
18 more LODLAM 2013 session
notes (on the LODLAM website or
not) can be annotated, connected,
and found through Pundit.
27
Part of the image can be annotated, referred as well as linked to Dbpedia, WordNet, EDM ….
28
Annotation of Web
content/objects can
be published & linked
to the Web of Data
through labelled
relation.

6. Proposition (1) Potential / LOD + LAM :
Web is the biggest library for all human.
DBpedia and Freebase have been played an
important role as the Web Library resources.
Libraries have long preserved/curated
massive & quality datasets. The hidden
treasure of the library data not only provides
opportunities but also offers a backbone of
trust for the Semantic Web.

(3) Semantic Annotation & Metadata
Releasing:
Semantic annotations have stirred up what LAM’s structured data toward more semantics, and get better at them by releasing & linking to LOD.
Human/Semi-automatic/Automatic Tools in three major Semantic Web conferences.
Releasing more: reach more, reuse more, and remix more.
