AW: Identifiers was: missing properties

Karen, all,

You can encode the nbn as a URI by using the urn:nbn:-schema [1], the specification is currently under revision, the most recent draft is at [2]. The urn-resolver at http://nbn-resolving.org will do its best to resolve any urn:nbn.

All the best,

Lars
