Currently, many libraries, archives, museums etc. are using open source digital library software to manage and preserve their digital collections. They may also intend to publish their e-resources as “Linked Open Datasets” for further usage. LOD enables the libraries or information centers to publish and share the structured metadata that is generated and maintained with their own bibliographic and authority data in such a way that the other libraries and general community across the world can consume, interact, enrich and share. In this context, the key issue is to convert the library bibliographic data which is commonly known as metadata into LOD dataset. The purpose of this paper is to provide a methodology and technical aspects to design and pub...

Libraries, information centers, archives, museums, etc. are being driven to add meaningful and interoperable web-based library services to address the growing information needs of the users. One of the major developments in recent times is the adoption of semantic web technologies in providing web-based library services. Semantic web technology is an advanced web interface that offers structured web-based data and allows organizations or institutions to describe, communicate, retrieve and re-distribute over the web. It enables the library community to include additional information from other external resources to provide enriched information services to the users. Transformation, integration, and publication of library data as linked open data (LOD) is one such service. A library database typically h...
