Librarian hands book to theatre lover: “here is your play”`. It has … pages, no illustrations. Measures book: it is …cm high. And there is an ISBN. Here I have another one. …… TL: this looks like an instruction manual… Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFZatmOFpns Etc.

Restproducten! Only remainders/residuals/waste products
Cool URIs don’t change RDF/XML, N3, Turtle
Need to know URI syntax? Discover?
An old fashioned ERD data model. More or less similar to an ontology
This is an example of a triple, two directions! Two triples in one
Persistent identifiers (part of URI!) String values Working together (we know each others stuff!)
Using generated HTML, not underlying MARC fields/subfields
Production JSON also contains identifier/link to digital objects in separate TIN Objects database
We didn't sue JavaScript to remove 'subtitle' after the ' : ' yet. Working on HTML, not underlying MARC fields/subfields
For instance VIAF for ‘authors’; Wikipedia/DBPedia, etc.
All ‘implicit relations’
