After the great success of the SWIB09 conference (http://swib09.de), the

(ZBW) will organise another conference discussing "Semantic Web in
Libraries" in 2010.

- Date: 29 and 30 November 2010 
- Place: KOMED, Cologne Mediapark
- Program: http://swib.org/swib10
- Conference fee: EUR 30.00

On the first day, papers will examine the strategic and political
significance of the Semantic Web for libraries. Open Data and the legal
questions regarding publication and reuse of data on the Semantic Web
will be also be addressed. On the second day, Karen Coyle will give the

projects in libraries and other institutions, where the focus is on the
