Several of the answers were technical in nature. However, somewhat surprisingly they were mostly grounded in what could best be described as business needs, such as: Seamless Knowledge Graph integration of records stored, and managed in separate systems No change required to the cataloging <span class=\"readmore\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dataliberate.com\/2023\/10\/27\/bibliographic-records-in-a-knowledge-graph-of-shared-systems\/\">...<\/a><\/span>","datePublished":"2023-10-27","dateModified":"2023-10-27","author":{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/www.dataliberate.com\/author\/richard-wallis\/#Person","name":"Richard Wallis","url":"https:\/\/www.dataliberate.com\/author\/richard-wallis\/","identifier":1,"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/dfc30377fdeb159bbd38ccbec398d54c?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/dfc30377fdeb159bbd38ccbec398d54c?s=96&d=mm&r=g","height":96,"width":96}},"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Data Liberate","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https:\/\/dev.dataliberate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/Data_Liberate_Logo-200.png","url":"https:\/\/dev.dataliberate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/Data_Liberate_Logo-200.png","width":600,"height":60}},"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"http:\/\/dataliberate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/SWIB-Vid-300x168.jpg","url":"http:\/\/dataliberate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/SWIB-Vid-300x168.jpg","height":"168","width":"300"},"url":"https:\/\/www.dataliberate.com\/2023\/10\/27\/bibliographic-records-in-a-knowledge-graph-of-shared-systems\/","video":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"VideoObject","@id":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Y8SroJLmHzE#VideoObject","contentUrl":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Y8SroJLmHzE","name":"From ambition to go live: The National Library Board of Singapore\u2019s journey","description":"From ambition to go live: The National Library Board of Singapore\u2019s journey to an operational linked data management & discovery system\n\nTalk by Richard Wallis\nData Liberate, United Kingdom\n\nAbstract:\nLike many institutions, the National Library Board (NLB) is responsible to curate, host, and manage many disparate systems across the National Library, national archives and public libraries, both print and digital. The NLB team evolved an ambitious vision for a management and discovery system built upon linked open data and the web, encompassing the many resources they manage. Richard, the project\u2019s linked, structured, and web data, and library metadata consultant, explores the the two-year journey to a live production system.\n\nThe agile project between NLB and commercial parters (utilizing a cloud-based environment hosting a semantic graph database, a knowledge graph development & management platform, and server-less compute services) overcame many interesting challenges, including the absence of a single source of truth. The requirements were to provide a continuously updated, reconciled, aggregation of data sources, providing a standardized view of five separate source data systems, each with their individual data formats, data models and curation teams, i.e., a data model capable of supporting a public discovery interface, which required the development of a model that provides a consistent view of all entities regardless of source system. This was constructed using combination of the BIBFRAME and Schema.org vocabularies and involved a data model capable of supporting the consolidated presentation of properties from multiple sources in single primary entities, automatic ingest and reconciliation of daily delta data dumps from source systems, and managing a project team spread across multiple geographies and timezones. There were lessons learnt and practical future plans made, which Richard will also discuss.\n\nSWIB23 Conference, 11-13 September 2023, Berlin Germany\nhttps:\/\/swib.org\/swib23\n#swib23","thumbnailUrl":["https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Y8SroJLmHzE\/default.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Y8SroJLmHzE\/mqdefault.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Y8SroJLmHzE\/hqdefault.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Y8SroJLmHzE\/sddefault.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Y8SroJLmHzE\/maxresdefault.jpg"],"uploadDate":"2023-09-20T11:07:40+00:00","duration":"PT28M10S","embedUrl":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Y8SroJLmHzE","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCfLnEmKaWqtR_4V1CNeK6rQ#Organization","url":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCfLnEmKaWqtR_4V1CNeK6rQ","name":"SWIB","description":"The SWIB - Semantic Web in Libraries conference is organized by the ZBW - German National Library of Economics \/ Leibniz Information Centre for Economics (http:\/\/www.zbw.eu)  and the North Rhine-Westphalian Library Service Centre (hbz) (https:\/\/www.hbz-nrw.de\/).
