| Sumario: | This paper presents an interdisciplinary study, involving elements of the Bibliography and Semantic Web. Specifically, it is based on the concepts of bibliographic records and Linked Open Data, considering that: i) the Bibliography deals with the different ways of registering knowledge in books, articles, newspapers, digital documents, among others; ii) considering the expansion of information across the web, the Bibliography needs to include new Information and Communication Technologies for maintaining bibliographic records; and iii) one of the contemporary concepts for sharing information on the web is Linked Open Data, which can be used to organize and represent knowledge units and their semantics. Thus, we aim to investigate the alignment of the Linked Open Data precepts for organizing, representing and sharing data resources circumscribed to Bibliography studies. Therefore, a search was conducted, seeking for vocabularies commonly used to represent bibliographic elements. This research was carried out from a repository named Linked Open Vocabularies. As a result, an ontology was identified to organize and represent bibliographic resources on the Web of Data, the Bibliographic Ontology. Semantically, this ontology comprises 58 classes and 67 properties inspired by various metadata for describing documents on the web. In few words, the Bibliographic Ontology can be used as an ontology of citation and classification of documents. In this sense, we concluded that the Bibliographic Ontology promotes the interoperability of data and metadata, increasing the benefits of processability, interoperability, comprehension and reuse of records and their semantics in bibliographic studies. |
