Eric Miller described what the concept of linked data is, practical applications for linked data space, and how libraries can contribute to linked data efforts. He defined linked data as the next phase of the World Wide Web. Whereas the Web made it possible to link and connect documents, linked data are leveraging the Web to connect data regardless of where those data reside. Miller suggested new opportunities for libraries to assist organizations with their information needs and to weave knowledge workers, library users, and librarians together in a new enterprise. © The North American Serials Interest Group, Inc.
