Very interesting that they are using dbpedia links for their authority. I can't see that they are in VIAF. It would be really interesting to find out more about this initiative. Are there others on the list who can provide some more information?
Thanks for sharing this!

Subject: Hungarian National Library published its entire OPAC and
Digital Library as Linked Data
To: public-lod_at_w3.org
The national library of Hungary - officially named as National
Széchényi Library (NSZL) - proudly announces that its entire OPAC and
Digital Library and the corresponding authority data have been
published as Linked Data. The used vocabularies are:
oRDFDC for bibliographic data,
oFOAF for name authority entries, and
oSKOS for subject terms and geographical names.
NSZL uses CoolURIs. Every resource has both RDF and HTML
representation.
Our RDFDC, FAOF and SKOS statements are linked together. Our name
authority is matched with the DBPedia name files and URI aliases are
handled as owl:sameAs statements.
NSZL also supports the HTML link auto-discovery.
Examples are:
OPAC records (RDFDC):
http://nektar.oszk.hu/resource/manifestation/2645471
Digital Library record (RDFDC):
http://oszkdk.oszk.hu/resource/DRJ/404
Name authority (FOAF):
http://nektar.oszk.hu/resource/auth/33589
Subject term (SKOS):
http://nektar.oszk.hu/resource/auth/magyar_irodalom
Any feedback is welcome.
NSZL followed and adapted the Swedish LIBRIS´s practices. We are
grateful for Martin Malmsten for his help. Skosification was done
under the TELplus project with the precious feedbacks of Antoine
Isaac.
