Abstract
Exposing interoperable Linked Open Data (LOD) in RDF notation is one of the six main use cases for the semantic web. Semantic web technology is the foundation of VIVO, and as such each VIVO installation can act as a source for LOD. However, the potential of LOD in VIVO remains relatively unexploited. The Université du Québec (UQ) is a network of 10 institutions throughout Québec, with over 102,000 students in some 1300 programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels. This presentation will cover the following: (1) a brief overview of the LOD needs in the UQ network and how these may be met with solutions based on VIVO; (2) VIVO functionalities that can be exploited in the context of LOD; (3) the integration, reuse and design of standardized open vocabularies contained in the Linked Open Vocabulary (LOV); (4) the design and integration of a competency vocabulary; (5) a description UQ's technological architecture, and specifically at the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM), the largest institution in the UQ network.
