Welcome to the website of Linked Data for Production (LD4P). With support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, six the LD4P partners (Columbia, Cornell, Harvard, Library of Congress, Princeton, and Stanford University/ Directory of team members) are piloting the transition production of technical services workflows to a linked data environmentfor library resources. Over a two-year period , the partners will focus on developing the ability to (2016-2018), our work focuses on: |
- developing standards, guidelines, and infrastructure to communally produce metadata as linked open
data communally, - data,
- developing end-to-end workflows to create linked data in a technical services production environment,
- extending the BIBFRAME ontology to
encompass the many resource formats managed by libraries- describe library resources in specialized domains and formats, and
- engaging the broader library community to ensure a sustainable and extensible environment.
LD4P works closely with While each partner institution leads its own domain-specific ontology extension and metadata production projects, the partners collaborate closely with one another and with the Mellon-
funded funded Linked Data for Libraries-Labs (LD4L-Labs)
project. Horizontal Navigation Bar |

Current activities of the LD4P partners as of February, 2017
Analysis and Modeling
At the end of 2016 the group, together with LD4L-Labs, completed many months of intense ontology work, evaluating BIBFRAME and developing recommendations for implementing and extending BIBFRAME. We are documenting the decisions that came out of the modeling effort, including application profiles and mappings; these outputs will be shared with the community in coming months.
The domain-specific ontology extension subgroups have been working on gathering requirements and use cases, evaluating existing ontologies and vocabularies, modeling extensions, and developing application profiles.
Tool evaluation is underway, and we’ve started a Tool Registry. We are working closely with LD4L-Labs to define requirements for and provide feedback on a MARC-to-linked-data converter and on the VitroLib linked data editing tool.
LD4P members have been speaking at several conferences in the library and semantic web world. In April of this year we will hold an invitational conference at Stanford University to present current work and discuss future directions.
