Rdf and R Guide - Resources and Review

CORC is a research project exploring the cooperative creation and sharing of metadata by libraries. It is designed to help both libraries and OCLC to move more quickly in coping with the huge amount of material available on the Web and to provide access to this material that can be integrated with access to their current resources. Features of CORC include authority control, RDF / XML import/export, integration of DC and MARC in single system, flexible harvesting of resources, Unicode support, assisted classification and subject heading assignment, automatic keyword extraction, automated data extraction, link maintenance and reference access
