Linked Open Data for Beginners

Linked open data has gained increasing attention in the library community over the past few years. As a web-friendly type of structured data, linked data holds a huge potential to improve library services and transform library technical services, especially in the area of metadata creation, sharing, and re-use.
Ex Libris has raised the priority for developing linked data services and features as demonstrated in their recent presentations at the 2023 ELUNA meeting and the Alma Roadmap for 2023-2024. Based on the announcement by Ex Libris at the ELUNA meeting, libraries that are interested in using BIBFRAME as their cataloging format will be able to do so towards the end of 2024.
With all those exciting developments, are you curious about linked data and potential replacements for the current cataloging formats? And what impact might it have at your library? If you are, please come to this presentation where IGeLU/ELUNA Linked Open Data Community of Practice Working Group members will explain core concepts of linked data in simple terms, demonstrate what libraries can do with linked data, and discuss how libraries may implement linked data at their own institutions.
This could be a good foundational session for those of you who may be interested in attending other linked data sessions at this conference.
