Description: 

The potential of the Semantic Web is fascinating, but it is hard to see how we transition out of MARC with so much legacy work and so much money tied up. Ross Singer and Eric Hellman will make the Semantic Web seem less futuristic and more immediate to our profession with an informative discussion of how we can frame library data in a web-friendly way.
