From Prototype to Production: Turning Good Ideas into Useful Library Services
Washington, DC (USA)
This session explores two projects at different points of the prototype-to-production workflow: IIIF (integration of the International Image Interoperability Framework) into a digital discovery environment; and a Linked Data Wikibase prototype (reconciliation tool and editor built to match library metadata workflows) transitioning to production. Temple University presents from the experimenter and practitioner point of view.
Topics: IIIF, Linked Data

Prototyping a Linked Data Platform for Production Cataloging Workflows
San Diego, California (USA)
Cornell University, the University of California, Davis, and Montana State Library have joined OCLC in joint research project prototyping a new suite of linked data services. This unique project uses the out-of-the-box services from Wikibase and a high-quality set of name entities available from FAST, VIAF, and Wikidata to prototype services.
