Digital Library-related resources for Linked Data

In a recent blog post about the incubator group, Michael Hausenblas mentions some interesting publications and asks for other DL-related resources. See the full post at

"....I stumbled upon two interesting new publications I’d like to share with you:
‘Facilitating Access to the Web of Data: A guide for librarians‘ contains an introduction to the Web of data and explores how you can harness the power of the technologies from a professional point of view.
‘Metadata for Digital Collections‘ is a how-to-do-it manual covering metadata topics, mapping between different schemes, metadata interoperability, OAI harvesting, as well as Linked Data stuff.
It’s an exciting time to work in the Linked Data area, activities in many application domains and on the systems level (NoSQL, SEO, etc.) are popping up like wild.

What do you think? Is the time ripe for a large-scale deployment of Linked Data in the DL domain? What other good resources do you know of?"
