On Linked data

Information systems, such as library catalogs, have
been, and still are, for the greatest part closed
containers of data, or “silos” without connections
between them.


¢Linked Data is a methodology for providing
relationships between things (data, concepts and documents) anywhere on the web, using URI’s for identifying, RDF for describing and HTTP for publishing
these things and relationships, in a way that they can be interpreted and used by humans and software.
