Abstract: 

A consortium of Canadian universities, libraries and archives, undertook a project to demonstrate the use of semantic web technologies and linked data in showcasing the wealth of digital resources in their collections. The presenters will review the process adopted by the project, the ontologies/element sets and vocabularies used to integrate the resource metadata, and will share with the audience the lessons learned by the project.
