8. Linked Data
"a term used to describe a recommended best
practice for exposing, sharing, and
connecting pieces of data, information,
and knowledge on the Semantic Web using

10. Libraries and Linked Data
• Increased flexibility for describing resources
• More reusable links from one record to another
• New options to contextualize external sources
• Ease of integration of catalogues into general
purpose Web and social media
• Lightweight model easier to extend for future needs
• Facilitate re-use of data and ability for developers to
incorporate into other apps
• Improved positioning of credible records from
libraries within Web search engines
