“…The project draws on jazz history materials in digital format to uncover meaningful connections between documents and data related to the personal and professional lives of jazz artists, and expose relationships between musicians that reveal their community network (Pattuelli, 2012). The 50+ interview transcripts were from various resources (the Rutgers Institute for Jazz Studies Archives, Smithsonian Jazz Oral Histories, the Hamilton College Jazz Archive, UCLA's Central Avenue Sounds series, and the University of Michigan's Nathaniel C. Standifer Video Archive of Oral History).…”

With the rapid development of the digital humanities (DH) field, demands for historical and cultural heritage data have generated deep interest in the data provided by libraries, archives, and museums (LAMs). In order to enhance LAM data's quality and discoverability while enabling a self-sustaining ecosystem, "semantic enrichment" becomes a strategy increasingly used by LAMs during recent years. This article introduces a number of semantic enrichment methods and efforts that can be applied to LAM data at various levels, aiming to support deeper and wider exploration and use of LAM data in DH research. The real cases, research projects, experiments, and pilot studies shared in this article demonstrate endless potential for LAM data, whether they are structured, semi-structured, or unstructured, regardless of what types of original artifacts carry the data. Following their roadmaps would encourage more effective initiatives and strengthen this effort to maximize LAM data's discoverability, use-and reuse-ability, and their value in the mainstream of DH and Semantic Web.

“…The Linked Jazz Name Directory was created to support the Linked Jazz project (Pattuelli, 2012). This effort brings together content from the Hamilton College Jazz Archive; Rutgers Institute for Jazz Studies Archives; Smithsonian Jazz Oral Histories; The University of California, Los Angeles's Central Avenue Sounds Series; and the University of Michigan's Nathaniel C. Standifer Video Archive of Oral History (Linked Jazz, n.d.).…”

“…This effort brings together content from the Hamilton College Jazz Archive; Rutgers Institute for Jazz Studies Archives; Smithsonian Jazz Oral Histories; The University of California, Los Angeles's Central Avenue Sounds Series; and the University of Michigan's Nathaniel C. Standifer Video Archive of Oral History (Linked Jazz, n.d.). Pattuelli (2012) explained some of the reasons for the creation of the Linked Jazz Name Directory: Existing library authority files, such as LCNAF and VIAF (Virtual International Authority File), have limited coverage of names within the domain of jazz music and do not offer the ability to filter out the names of jazz artists; and while domain-specific data sets exist, they are not open or available as linked data. Instead of relying on an internal or organizational data set, the project used DBpedia (https://wiki.dbpedia.org/) to construct its data set (Pattuelli, 2012).…”

Name authority control-the process of selecting and maintaining a set of headings or access points for named entities-brings consistency to names in online systems and can help users locate needed items and identify related materials. Linked data provides the opportunity to extend name authority data sets and make them available to wider audiences. This column seeks to provide an overview of the landscape of local name authority projects using linked data, along with practices, challenges, and other considerations in this area.

Knowledge Organization Systems (KOS) in the Semantic Web: a multi-dimensional review

Since the Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS) specification and its SKOS eXtension for Labels (SKOS-XL) became formal W3C recommendations in 2009 a significant number of conventional knowledge organization systems (KOS) (including thesauri, classification schemes, name authorities, and lists of codes and terms, produced before the arrival of the ontology-wave) have made their journeys to join the Semantic Web mainstream. This paper uses "LOD KOS" as an umbrella term to refer to all of the value vocabularies and lightweight ontologies within the Semantic Web framework. The paper provides an overview of what the LOD KOS movement has brought to various communities and users. These are not limited to the colonies of the value vocabulary constructors and providers, nor the catalogers and indexers who have a long history of applying the vocabularies to their products. The LOD dataset producers and LOD service providers, the information architects and interface designers, and researchers in sciences and humanities, are also direct beneficiaries of LOD KOS. The paper examines a set of the collected cases (experimental or in real applications) and aims to find the usages of LOD KOS in order to share the practices and ideas among communities and users. Through the viewpoints of a number of different user groups, the functions of LOD KOS are examined from multiple dimensions. This paper focuses on the LOD dataset producers, vocabulary producers, and researchers (as end-users of KOS).
