Authority Concept Mappings
From Library Linked Data
Introduction
Here are some rough informal mappings from various “authority data” perspectives to a SKOS perspective.
Mapping Traditional Terms
| Traditional Term | SKOS/XL Alternative | Note | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Authority File | skos:ConceptScheme or skos:Collection | ||
| Authority Record | skos:Concept | You can think of the skos:Concept as a controllable "surrogate" for the Primary Entity (owl:Thing). | |
| Heading | skosxl:Label | ||
| Established Heading | skos:prefLabel or skosxl:prefLabel | ||
| Variant Heading | skos:altLabel or skosxl:altLabel | ||
| Primary Entity | owl:Thing | This is the thing the authority record labels/names/describes. foaf:focus can be used to relate the skos:Concept to the owl:Thing. |
