Right now:
If I want to find stuff on the Web, about basic topics: books, authors…
…Unless I already know and use Library portals and tools…
… it is quite hard to find resources provided by Libraries. Even digital books.

A Web interface … easy-to-find and easy-to-use :
This « hub » is not just one more interface, it must gather:
Resources, for users Data, on the Web.

Bringing them together…
… redirecting towards specific tools:
Does not replace existing cataloguesDoes not include a search engine
… using FRBR Associated and interoperable with new
cataloguing principles In order to regroup resources

A Web interface « landing pages » about concepts
Works and Agents Un pivot Relying on authority records.Bring together and give access to several

Un travail sur les données
Combining a "traditional" Web interface with a "Linking open data" approach: Bringing up information around a concept: the
choice of RDF A "regular" Web interface, Beyond the interface, persistent URLs. A back-office work on the data
Bringing data together An end-user interface “Raw data" too
