any ways openlibrary.org can help here (cc: drini + charles + tom)? Open Library is very open/eager to make our inventory more accessible and to resolve books + authors against wikidata (and to write back, where appropriate). Gerard has recently done a great job facilitating author deduping w/ Charles. Drini + Tom have also worked towards better wikidata + ol integration.
What's needed from libraries for this current effort; how can we learn more and help? best wishes, - mek citizen of the World Open Librarian @ openlibrary.org On Mon, Jul 2, 2018 at 10:52 AM Info WorldUniversity < [email protected]> wrote: > Merrilee, Daniel, Wikimedia Librarians, WikiCite people, and Wikidatans, > > Thanks.
