[topicmapmail] Topic Maps and Libraries

[Steve Pepper]

Hi Suellen,

Henrik Laursen and Mads Henriksen of the Royal Library, Copenhagen, gave a
presentation at the 2006 Topic Maps conference on work they had done using
Topic Maps to provide integrated search across multiple systematic
catalogues. A short presentation (including contact information) is
available at [1].

I'll assume Alex Johannessen reads your post and responds directly. If not,
seek him out. He is a Topic Maps expert who spent several years at the
National Library in Australia.

Finally, there's a company in Korea specializing in software for libraries
that I know has been looking into the use of Topic Maps. Their name is INEK
(www.inek.co.kr).

I'm teaching Topic Maps to library science students this fall, so I would be
interested in reading your article when it's finished.

Best regards,

Steve

| A colleague and I are writing an article about Topic Maps and
| Libraries. We are interested in identifying Topic Mapping projects
