Fwd: [LOD-LAM] Examples of (non UK) open AND Linked META data initiatives

Did Ken find your LAM linked data and open data for this JISC list?

Ken -- for LD stuff, if you haven't yet seen the W3C LLD draft Use Case
report it mentions numerous projects and conceived projects:

I'm pulling together a list (for the JISC 'discovery' initiative
http://www.discovery.ac.uk/ ) of non UK open AND linked *META* data
initiatives in the Libraries Museums and Archives (LAM) domain, Is
there a list out there already that I've missed?

The related JISC open bibliographic data guide
http://obd.jisc.ac.uk/examples
has *some* examples from UK and elsewhere

I would appreciate any help...individual examples, key projects or
lists. We will share results on the ukdiscovery web site.

The aim of the Discovery is to ' help to mobilise and energise the
community, engaging stakeholders to create a critical mass of open and
reusable data, and explore what open data makes possible through real-
world exemplars and case studies'.
