> Belling the Cat: Making CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CRM) data

> A practical hands-on workshop of a complete solution using freeware

> Organizers: Stephen STEAD | Michael CHARNO, UK

> The mice meet in council to debate the problem of the new cat in the
> district. One suggests that a bell should be attached to the cat to give a
> warning. This is greeted with universal approval until someone asks “How?”

> Cultural Heritage Informatics specialists are often heard to say “just
> publish your CRM data as linked open data so that others can use it”, but
> how do we actually do that? This workshop aims to lead attendees through
> the process of taking an export of delimited text (ie. comma separated
> values) from their database, converting it to CRM compatible RDF triples
> and then making them available via a triple store for consumption by humans
> or machines as linked open data. The course will provide an introduction to
> linked open data and then will lead users through a cookbook of simple to
> follow techniques for creating and publishing it. All software used in the
> workshop will be freeware and runs on the free and open source operating
> system Linux. The software and operating system are uniquely capable of
> running on underpowered hardware, making deploying it simple even with
> limited support from an IT department or support services. The full set of
> software and guidelines will be available to attendees (if you bring a USB
> stick)
