- Abstract
As the amount of information and data increases, structuring data is important for discovery and retrieval. We will discuss use cases developed at the OHSU Library that demonstrate the value of using a formal system of logic and meaning (semantics) to structure, manage, and discover data. These tools and technologies can be used by libraries to advance information retrieval and discovery in their communities and to connect to the larger scholarly landscape.
