OCLC builds on its linked data strategy by creating uniform resource identifiers for Dewey Decimal Classification numbers

OCLC is unlocking the power of the Dewey Decimal Classification system to build an increasingly robust linked data infrastructure by creating uniform resource identifiers (URIs) for Dewey numbers.
As the foundation for “concept” entities, this Dewey linked data provides subject classifications to Works entities in WorldCat Entities, creating a layer of new relationships for knowledge graphs that power discovery.
