Exploring Linked Open Data capabilities at the European Parliament Library
Session Abstract
The European Parliament Library is part of the European Parliament Research Service (EPRS).
Unfortunately, the library is not perceived as a core service, and increasing the visibility of its resources is a critical challenge.
We are using the EBSCO Linked Data services to explore the capabilities offered by linked data to address this problem. Our Alma catalogue is transformed into a graph of Bibframe resources. After this transformation, the service:
• Exposes resources from our catalogue in a publicly-available website (https://link.europarl.europa.eu/)
• Creates connections between Bibframe resources
• Can enrich resources with linked open data
• Can generate HTML widgets to expose subsets of our collection
We will present how we used this service to create visually appealing widgets to advertise our resources in our Libguides. We will also discuss the current limitations found in the service, and how we plan to overcome them.
