Very interesting work. Is this a continuing project? There is
mention of the Getty vocabularies, something that we'd find valuable.
How long did the work of mapping to LCSH take? I'm wondering because
we have faculty projects with their own vocabularies that, if I
understand correctly, we would need to map to LCSH and encode in
MARC21 authority XML to incorporate.
has there been any experimentation in developing interfaces to take
advantage of these mappings?
