This really is good news. I added the CKAN package you already registered[1] to the Linked Library Data[2] and bibliographic data[3] group. If you add information about links to other datasets to the package as described in [4] this will be reflected in the LLD group's visualization[5], the "Linked Library Data cloud". Is NDL considering open licensing and publishing a full data dump ?
