Sumario:Objective: A greater understanding of the role of libraries in Linked Data was sought, aiming to identify: 1) how the representation of information resources in Linked Data occurs; 2) how libraries can contribute to Linked Data; 3) how libraries can benefit from data published by other data sources. Methods: An exploratory analysis of the theme was carried out, based on a bibliographic survey in the Database in Information Science (BRAPCI) and in the Periodical Portal of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES). In addition, the official documents of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), responsible for monitoring the development of the Web and Linked Data, were analyzed. Results: It was identified that the cooperation process between libraries and sources of information external to the bibliographic domain can occur from two aspects, that of publisher and that of data consumer. Each of these forms of action can be carried out independently, require different decision making and have different advantages. Conclusions: It is concluded that libraries should adopt the recommendations of the W3C to enhance the reuse of their connected data. It is concluded that the institutions of the bibliographic domain need to be mobilized to elaborate instruments and criteria that can base their performance as a data consumer.
