I am not sure how much I am supposed to go into details, but I guess what I can say is that given that IOS Press has been around for 40 years, they deal with a very diverse set of metadata (formats). Even today, different types of publications, e.g., book chapters versus journals, result in metadata in different formats. Within the Linked Data community, we often also think of breaking up data silos /across/ data providers such as IOS Press and other publishers. However, the current situation is more dire as companies have to break up silos /within/ their own organization first. In many ways, each journal (and there are many of them) is its own silo which means that you cannot easily connect authors across different outlets such as the Semantic Web journal and the Data Semantics journal despite them sharing an overlapping audience. IOS Press is moving towards using RDF-based Linked Data for their internal as well as external workflows. > > Best, > > Ruben -- Krzysztof Janowicz Geography Department, University of California, Santa Barbara 4830 Ellison Hall, Santa Barbara, CA 93106-4060 Email: jano@geog.ucsb.edu Webpage: http://geog.ucsb.edu/~jano/ Semantic Web Journal: http://www.semantic-web-journal.net
