Nice work.

My question is how to express the text of the actual articles (which the Museum Victoria API provides as an HTML fragment embedded in its JSON response). At the moment I have simply used rdf:value to attach the HTML fragment as an XML literal to the E31 Document instance. Is this the recommended practice?
"Recommended practice" suggests that lots of people are already including full text resources in their Linked Data offerings. I don't think we're at that point [yet], though I would be delighted to be told I'm wrong.

Your approach seems perfectly reasonable to me, in the context of an RDF/XML serialization. Presumably it might present problems in other serializations, e.g. Turtle, when you get to the point of offering more.

Another way of doing it might be to treat the article as a free-standing information resource, mint a URL for it, and create RDF metadata which describes this resource. Your proxy software would have to resolve the URL and serve up the HTML when requested, but I assume that wouldn't be hard.

Best wishes,

Richard
