Call for Papers : Special Issue on Linked Data, Semantic Web and Libraries: Journal \
of Library Metadata
Guest Editor : Sheila Bair
Associate Professor, Metadata & Cataloging Librarian
Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, MI
Overview: 2013 finds libraries on the threshold of a "new bibliographic universe." \
The Semantic Web, Linked Data, and open access all promise to set library metadata \
free from its historical constraints. How are libraries preparing for and \
experimenting with sharing data in this new world of information-set-free? The \
general aim of this special issue of the Journal of Library Metadata is to access and \
present current practices, trends and research in moving library metadata into, and \
positioning libraries for success in, this new environment.
Topics: Recommended topics include, but are not limited to the following:
* Libraries and Linked Data/Semantic Web
* Open access, library metadata and Linked Data/Semantic Web
* Institutional repository metadata and the Semantic Web
* Harvesting and sharing of metadata in the new environment
* Incorporating Linked Data into library information systems
* Authority control, vocabularies and Linked Data/Semantic Web
* Rights and license management in the Semantic Web
* Linked Data and MARC and non-MARC (EAD, Dublin Core, etc.) library metadata
* Migration of MARC and non-MARC library metadata to new systems and platforms
* Conversion and mapping of MARC and non-MARC library metadata to RDF and Linked \
Data
* Data clean-up in preparation for migration/conversion
Submission Procedure: Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit on or \
before, March 31, 2013, a proposal (up to 500 words) clearly explaining the \
objectives and concerns of his or her proposed article. Authors of accepted proposals \
will be notified shortly about the status of their proposals. Full manuscripts \
(4000-7000 words) are expected to be submitted by July 10, 2013. All submitted \
manuscripts will be reviewed on a double-blind review basis. Please forward \
submissions electronically (Word document) to the guest editor at \
sheila.bair@wmich.edu
The Journal of Library Metadata is the exclusive forum for the latest research, \
innovations, news, and expert views about all aspects of metadata applications in \
libraries and about the role of metadata in information retrieval. This focused \
journal comprehensively discusses practical, applicable information that libraries \
can effectively use in their own information discovery environments. Specialized \
knowledge, the latest technology, and top research are presented pertaining \
specifically to evolving metadata use in libraries. More information about the \
Journal of Library Metadata can be found online at \
