Here's where I get confused: between something like SKOS, which is used to define a vocabulary, and instance data, such as that of BL. Andy's reply makes me wonder if SKOS should be used at all for instance data. > > If you want to do something like this then IMHO use rdfs:label instead of > skos:prefLabel to get around integrity constraints S13 and S14. I can imagine wanting to carry a variety of labels in the instance data, purely for the convenience of having the human-usable forms available with the data itself. If the forms are of equal value but in different languages, a language code might suffice. But it may be desirable to carry both preferred and alternate forms. It seems that this could require that the instance metadata scheme define appropriate properties for those. kc -- Karen Coyle kcoyle@kcoyle.net http://kcoyle.net ph: 1-510-540-7596 m: 1-510-435-8234 skype: kcoylenet
