Look at: 
http://kcoyle.blogspot.com/2009/07/yee-on-rdf-and-bibliographic-data.html, 
answer #2, for the ID questions. An "entity" would be something like a 
publisher record, with some information about the publisher entity. If 
we have such an entity we can include things like address, years in 
which the publisher existed, and whatever else we want to store about 
the publisher as an entity.
