Semantic web technologies provide innovative means for organizing, describing, and managing digital resources in a range of formats. Successful implementation and use of semantic web technologies requires both information professionals and system developers to become knowledgeable about the underlying intellectual construct and roadmap toward forming a semantic web. The IMLS-funded Helping Interdisciplinary Vocabulary Engineering (HIVE) project has been addressing these needs by working with the W3C's Simple Knowledge Organization Systems (SKOS) in the linked data environment. HIVE has been implemented using semantic web enabling technologies and machine learning to provide a solution to the traditional controlled vocabulary problems of cost, interoperability, and usability. HIVE vocabulary partners include the Library of Congress, the Getty Research Institute, the U.S. Geological Survey, and the National Library of Spain.

This workshop is for information professionals (librarians, archivists, museum professional, web architects, and others); system developers; technologists/computer scientists, and students seeking knowledge about the basic framework and conceptual aspect of vocabulary design. Attendees may also have an interest in technical aspects of the semantic web, and in implementing and/or experimenting with technologies.
