Reintroducing Schema.org
What is Schema.org
• Librarians	…	
– Really	understand	their	domain	and	their	data	
– Good	at	cooperation	
• Early	Schema.org	–	Useful	but	not	good	enough	
• Form	a	W3C	Community	Group	–		Schema	Bib	Extend	
• Identified	public	data	sharing	use	cases	–	Knowledge	Graph	
• What	can't	you	do	with	Schema	as	it	is?	
• Fill	in	the	gaps	
• Create	real	examples	
• Proposed	enhancements	to	core	vocabulary	
• Proposed	more	focused	extension	–	bib.schema.org	
• A	few	iterations	–	2	years
