Take-away Home Message • Different Users → Different Requirements • „One size does not fit all” – is that right? • JeromeDL – digital library on social semantic information sources - combines the past and the future - now!
Presentation Outline • Motivation: different users, different requirements • What is a Semantic Digital Library • JeromeDL: • Goals • Ontologies • Delivering and utilizing semantic information • JeromeDL – short demo • Conclusions and future work
Different User Roles – Different Requirements • Researcher • (publisher) • Goals: • to publish research results with least effort required • to find research results on related topics • Interested in: • easy publishing • citation index
Different User Roles – Different Requirements • Average User • (consumer) • Goals: • to easily find and access knowledge • to share the knowledge with peers • Interested in: • efficient search and browsing techniques • applications of online communities
Different User Roles – Different Requirements • Librarian • (dispatcher) • Goals: • to preserve knowledge in form of library resources • to maintain library resources against all odds • Interested in: • precise, formal annotations of resources • knowledge organization systems

JeromeDL – Social Semantic Digital Library • Digital Library build with semantics and communities in mind • Build to reflect requirements of: • Librarians • Researchers • Average users • Ultimate goal – accessibility achieved through • Interface design • Search and browsing technologies • In-depth internationalization effort
What is a Social Semantic Digital Library? Social Semantic digital libraries • integrate information from various sources • provide interoperability with other systems (not only libraries) • deliver more robust, user friendly and adaptable search and browsing interfaces empowered by semantics and social networking
Ontologies in JeromeDL • Structure (system administrators): • JeromeDL structure ontology • Bibliographic and legacy descriptions (domain experts and expert users): • MarcOnt bibliographic ontology • Extensible MarcOnt suggestions • Communities (normal users, expert users with restricted vocabulary): • FOAF and FOAFRealm identity management ontology • Social semantic collaborative filtering (SSCF) ontology • Semantically Interlinked Online Communities (SIOC) ontology
JeromeDL – Delivering Semantic Content • Providing semantic annotations during uploading process: • open module (JOnto) for handling any taxonomies • keywords based on: • WordNet • free tagging • defining structure of resources in the JeromeDL ontology • Lifting legacy metadata to MarcOnt ontology • Community maintained annotations • social semantic collaborative filtering • semantic descriptions based on the FOAF metadata
JeromeDL – Semantic Information In Use • Keyword-based search with semantic query expansion • Semantic search: • Direct RDF querying • Natural language templates • Social Semantic Collaborative Filtering • Faceted Navigation: • creators, • types, • keywords, • topics • Heterogeneous communication: • Bibster, A9, OAI
JeromeDL - Demo • Installation • Key features for a registered user • Registering • Browsing (by type, author, keyword, domain), changing view • Information in RSS, RDF, and other from MMS • Expressing semantics (microformats, eRDF, etc.) • Searching (simple, advanced, distributed, semantic) • Key features for librarians and administrators • Uploading, updating, approving and removing resources • Reindexing and refreshing
Conclusions and Future Work • “Research stable” version 2.0 of JeromeDL - after 2 years of research and development • JeromeDL realizes the vision of social semantic information spaces • Further developed in two streams: • Industrial stabilization and support by DERI Galway • More impact on research in key components: MarcOnt, S3B, HyperCuP and JOnto
JeromeDL does answer various expectations with the Digital Library on Social Semantic Information Sources the Future is Now Sebastian Ryszard Kruk DERI, NUI Galway, Ireland sebastian.kruk@deri.org
