Hi,

I wanted to try and learn about semantic web and sparql. So I give it a try in a opac-detail view. This patch is just a poc and really not for production. I wanted to know if this type of work is relevant to you. I know in community previous work was done but maybe you can share where you are now with linked data ?

Just 2 words about the dev :

    * Simple syspref called "Explore", 3 possibilities: nothing, Bnf (national library in france) and Wikidata

    * Some datas are fetched, I suppose I have an ark in my biblio

    * I display "simple information", there is no complicated query

    

Possibles "next" :

  * Not one source (bnf or wikidata), but cross fetch between sources (ex: bnf + wikidata + europeana + geonames + whatever ;)

  * Having a "local triple store" or not doing real time to have information display quicker

  * More complicated queries to display timeline for date or exploring period, exploring "notable work" or "author collaborated with" etc.

  

The dev is probably not as clean as you wish, and I prefer to share something to talk about - even not perfect - than nothing. I plan to write a blog post about what I learn. Tell me if you are interested, it could encourage me to do it :p

Claire.
