Literature‐based review.
SKOS Core serves as an efficient and practical segue from traditional knowledge organization systems such as thesauri and classification systems to more complex and logic‐driven Semantic Web languages.
Librarians with a need to provide semantically‐rich access to digital resources will find SKOS Core a useful addition to their metadata tool kits.
Provides a useful and practical introduction to a new Semantic Web tool which should be of great interest to librarians tasked with integrating knowledge organization systems into digital libraries.
