While arguably not Linked Data per-se, you might be interested in work being done on the Open Publication Distribution System (OPDS) [1], which aims to use Atom for making metadata about ebooks available. A key part of an OPDS feed are opds:acquisition links between an atom:entry and a epub document identified with a URI and a media type, for example: <link type="application/epub+zip" href="http://www.feedbooks.com/book/4440.epub" rel="http://opds-spec.org/acquisition"/> Implementors include people at O'Reilly, Internet Archive, Ibis Reader, FeedBooks, to name a few. Much of the work is actually going on in open bi-weekly conference calls, and on a discussion list [3] if you are interested. On a recent call Hadrien Gardeur of Feedbooks was talking about embedding opds atom documents in the ebook serializations, so it might be worthwhile pinging him and/or the discussion list to see where things are at. //Ed [1] http://code.google.com/p/openpub/wiki/CatalogSpecDraft [2] http://ibisreader.com/ [3] http://groups.google.com/group/openpub
