Posted on behalf of my OCLC Research colleague. Roy OCLC Research is conducting a survey to learn details of specific projects or services that format metadata as linked data and/or make subsequent uses of it. Many in the libraries/archives/museum community are excited by the potential of linked data applications to make new, valuable uses of existing metadata. If you or a colleague have implemented or are implementing linked data projects or services-either by publishing data as linked data or ingesting linked data resources into your own data or applications-please take the survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/LinkedDataSurvey Expected time to complete the survey: 15-20 minutes for each project described. We ask that responses be completed by 31 July 2014. Examples collected will be shared for the benefit of others wanting to undertake similar efforts, wondering what is possible to do and how to go about it. Participating institutions will be identified with the projects described, but contact information will be held confidential. Responses to this survey will be valuable to others who are also interested in starting Linked Data projects. Please feel free to share the above link to the survey. We¹d like as many responses as possible! With thanks, Karen Smith-Yoshimura OCLC Research
