The OCLC Project Passage report is out -- it provides an overview of the context in which
the prototype was developed, how the Wikibase platform was adapted for use by librarians,
and eight use cases where pilot participants describe their experience of creating
metadata for resources in various formats and languages using the Wikibase editing
interface.
During the ten months of the pilot, the participants gained insight in both the potential
of linked data in library cataloging workflows and the gaps that must be addressed before
machine-readable semantic data can be fully adopted. The report is dense, informative and
hopefully worth waiting for!
