Libraries
From GetSemantic
There is a large amount of metadata stored about books and resources within libraries could do with being more open.
The most promising Semantic Web approach at the moment seems to be BibliOntology.
The microformats community is working on a citation microformat.
Once both approaches are closer to conclusion, it would be desirable if the microformat could be GRDDLable.
[edit] Software
- BibDesk (OS X)
- ProCite (Windows)
- BibTex Tools
- bib2html (BibTeX to XML to XHTML via XSLT - could be useful to implement with citation microformat etc.)
- Delicious Monster (OS X 'media manager')
- Booxter
[edit] Institutional players
Libraries use OPAC systems, and there's a list of some of these on Integrated Library System page on Wikipedia.
