The Semantic Web is based on a "Layer Cake" of Linked Data technologies. Learning about the technologies and tools that make this work can be daunting. When I was asked to teach the UCLA Continuing Resources Study Group about Linked Data, I was still in the early stages of learning about the technology myself. As I worked through the learning curves, I developed a Semantic Web LibGuide which lists best practices, learning resources, ontologies & vocabularies, tools, and use cases. My presentation will highlight the ways in which the LibGuide can be used to access useful Semantic Web resources. Areas I would like to cover are: The Linked Open Data Cloud & Best Practices; Semantic Web Tools, Vocabularies, and examples of Use Cases.
The web address for the LibGuide is: https://guides.library.ucla.edu/semantic-web
