Linked Open BNB preview now available

Dear all, 

 

As some of you are aware, the British Library is developing a Linked
Open Data version of the BNB. We've uploaded a subset of the BNB and
this is now available for preview. Information on how to access and
further details about the scope of the dataset, the data model, etc. are
available at: http://www.bl.uk/bibliographic/datafree.html

 

Please bear in mind that this is very much work in progress; we've
already identified some issues, which we are working on resolving in
time for the release of the bigger dataset. We've listed these issues,
together with other caveats at the page above. 

 

Feedback - preferably constructive ;-) - is welcome. I'm now out of the
office but back in on Wednesday 20th July. I'll be happy to take up the
discussion then.

 

Cheers

 

Corine
