Given I have these RDF files and I am able to easily update them (more
or less), what are some of the things I need to do in order expose
them more systematically and in a way that can truly be called linked
data?

It seems to me that the presence of the following tags qualifies the RDF
as linked data:
<dc:rights>http://creativecommons.org/licenses/GPL/2.0/</dc:rights>
<dc:source
rdf:resource="gopher://wiretap.spies.com:70/00/Library/Classic/utopia.txt"/>
Of course, the usefulness of linked data increases drastically with the
number of dimensions along which it's linked.
I'm interested by:
<dc:subject>
<rdf:Bag>
<rdf:li>man</rdf:li>
<rdf:li>people</rdf:li>
....
</rdf:Bag>
</dc:subject>
Given that dc:subject is repeatable, and there doesn't appear to be
anything being said about cardinality, wouldn't this be simpler as:
<dc:subject>man</dc:subject>
<dc:subject>people</dc:subject>
...
Certainly the later converts to fewer tuples, since there is no bag to
track the membership of.
Your <alex:local_mirror />, <alex:concordance /> and <alex:plain_html
/> tags seem to be remarkably similar to dc.relation.isFormatOf. Maybe
you could recast these in terms of dc?
