Library Linked Data cloud – a teaser

Following up on this afternoon’s dork shorts, with Tom Baker presenting W3C’s Library Linked Data incubator, and Adrian Pohl telling us about the really useful ckan.net, here’s a graphical rendering of library linked datasets on the CKAN LLD group, courtesy of William Waites:

We plan to keep updating and use this in one of our incubator’s deliverables (draft in progress here, comments welcome as for the main LLD report draft). The idea is to get something closer to our community than the ever growing general LOD cloud.

So, we’ve got a start for the “L” in LAM. But where are As and Ms? C’mon!!!

I guess augmenting such a library graph with the published datasets from museums and archives could be a first work item for a W3C community group on LOD-LAM…
