Has thought been given to how this would integrate into an integrated library system as a whole? What about patron loans, etc. Does the new way of doing things support transactions? If the answer is, no, you still need relational for that, then, having to create a programming model that works both with a relational store and a triple store doesn’t sound fun to me. I want to have a single data model for everything. If a triple store will do everything, then, maybe I need to update my skill set. Otherwise, it seems like not a very elegant solution to me. How will this work with languages other than JavaScript. Presumably, you can do a query and get back JSON which would be easy to work with if you are using JavaScript, but, it would be work putting the data into an object model that could be easily used the same way an ORM would. What about bi-directional relationships and being able to search from any direction?

RDF is a graph data model, and in fact more and more people have come to realize that the graph data model is much more natural way to store, describe, and integrate data than the relational. Relational tables are totally man-made abstract concepts, while graphs and networks exist in nature, our societies, technology infrastructure etc. That RDBMS has been popular for several decades, it does not mean it needs to stay that way ;) Data integration and schema-less-ness are some of the points where triplestores (RDF databases) really shine.
