<p style="line-height:12.95pt;background:white"><span style="font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:black">Robin Hastings, Director of Technology Services for Northeast Kansas Library System (NEKLS), will review the basics of what linked data is, what the potential
of linked data can be and how libraries (and other organizations) are using it right now to make information more easily accessible on the web. Attendees will also learn what the Library of Congress is doing with BIBFRAME and how projects like the Open Library
are making use of linked data to extend their reach and make their information reusable.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
