  1. SharedCanvas: A Collaborative Model for Medieval Manuscript Layout Dissemination.

    Authors: Herbert Van de Sompel, Robert Sanderson, Benjamin Albritton, Rafael Schwemmer
    Subjects: Digital Libraries
    Abstract

    In this paper we present a model based on the principles of Linked Data that
    can be used to describe the interrelationships of images, texts and other
    resources to facilitate the interoperability of repositories of medieval
    manuscripts or other culturally important handwritten documents. The model is
    designed from a set of requirements derived from the real world use cases of
    some of the largest digitized medieval content holders, and instantiations of
    the model are intended as the input to collection-independent page turning and
    scholarly presentation interfaces.

  2. An HTTP-Based Versioning Mechanism for Linked Data.

    Subjects: Digital Libraries
    Abstract

    Dereferencing a URI returns a representation of the current state of the
    resource identified by that URI. But, on the Web representations of prior
    states of a resource are also available, for example, as resource versions in
    Content Management Systems or archival resources in Web Archives such as the
    Internet Archive. This paper introduces a resource versioning mechanism that is
    fully based on HTTP and uses datetime as a global version indicator.

  3. Making Web Annotations Persistent over Time.

    Authors: Herbert Van de Sompel, Robert Sanderson
    Subjects: Digital Libraries
    Abstract

    As Digital Libraries (DL) become more aligned with the web architecture,
    their functional components need to be fundamentally rethought in terms of URIs
    and HTTP. Annotation, a core scholarly activity enabled by many DL solutions,
    exhibits a clearly unacceptable characteristic when existing models are applied
    to the web: due to the representations of web resources changing over time, an
    annotation made about a web resource today may no longer be relevant to the
    representation that is served from that same resource tomorrow.

  4. A Web-Based Resource Model for eScience: Object Reuse & Exchange

    Authors: Carl Lagoze, Herbert Van de Sompel, Michael Nelson, Simeon Warner, Robert Sanderson, Pete Johnston
    Subjects: Digital Libraries
    Abstract

    Work in the Open Archives Initiative - Object Reuse and Exchange (OAI-ORE)
    focuses on an important aspect of infrastructure for eScience: the
    specification of the data model and a suite of implementation standards to
    identify and describe compound objects. These are objects that aggregate
    multiple sources of content including text, images, data, visualization tools,
    and the like. These aggregations are an essential product of eScience, and will
    become increasingly common in the age of data-driven scholarship. The OAI-ORE
