Thanks! It was also notable that the ukoer metadata was more complete
to please keep up the data entry

Hmm, interesting question. With this visualisation it was variations
in how resources were institutionally affiliated that almost scuppered
it. Google Refine can cope to a degree with this but the as the
processes is semi-automated there are errors and some ukoer resources
are missing because an institution name couldn't be extracted.
As Lorna said more visualisations to come, which will mean more blog
posts. There's also a recommendations summary to write which will also
be posted. Stay tuned ...
