INTRODUCTION AND CONFERENCE SCOPE

The quantity of Linked Data published by libraries is increasing dramatically: 
Following the lead of the National Library of Sweden (2008), several libraries 
and library networks have begun to publish authority files and bibliographic 
information as linked (open) data.
However, applications that consume this data are not yet widespread. 
Particularly, there is a lack of methods for integration of Linked Data from 
multiple sources and its presentation in appropriate end user interfaces. 
Existing services tend to build on one or two well integrated datasets – often 
from the same data supplier – and do not actively use the links provided to 
other datasets within or outside of the library or cultural heritage sector to 
provide a better user experience.
