I don't know if "start" is the right word, :-), but, yes, I do think it would make it easier for lots of folks if the data carried dcterms names, since they already know those. There have been changes to the types (http://openlibrary.org/type) related to the recent release, so I should go back over my (on paper only) crosswalk. I'm also not sure how to express Works v. Manifestations in dcterms... if anyone has any insight into that, please share! kc > > MJ > _______________________________________________ > Ol-tech mailing list > [email protected] > http://mail.archive.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ol-tech > To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send email to > [email protected] > -- Karen Coyle [email protected] http://kcoyle.net ph: 1-510-540-7596 m: 1-510-435-8234 skype: kcoylenet _______________________________________________ Ol-tech mailing list [email protected] http://mail.archive.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ol-tech To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send email to [email protected]
