Welcome to the SMARCQL Ontology

SPARQL + MARC = SMARCQL

The general idea of using SPARQL to index MARC is introduced in this Hanging Together blog post.

As a way for formalizing the idea, this site is dedicated to defining and describing a SMARCQL Ontology. (This is just a stub for now, but with more to come.)

Code and instructions to create and index MARC/RDF (“SMARCQL”) output from existing MARC/XML input is available via a Github repository here.

Interested parties are welcomed and encouraged to improve this formaliation by creating new issue tickets here.
