Change management documents produced by authoritative providers
Library of Congress
LOC implements Activity Stream and has types.
- URI belongs to a scheme when active (e.g. subject scheme). This is identified by a triple. The scheme triple is removed when it is deprecated.
- Sometimes a term may move from one authority (e.g. subject) to another (e.g. genre). Adds a triple identifying the new term (e.g. use_instead predicate). Complicated when the change is a split. Which term's URI should be used for use_instead?
Activity Stream is under development and is likely going to be a change management feed using JSON-LD. Currently, LOC is using an Atom Feed to provide some basic change management info.
