WOLFCon pre-conference session description (proposed):

Because FOLIO is format-agnostic, it is well-positioned to enable libraries to make the
transition from traditional MARC-based cataloging processes to a linked open data
production environment. Many initiatives will the goal of making this transition possible are
underway, but they are at various stages of readiness and still require further development.
These evolving conditions make it difficult for librarians to assess the timeline for
implementing a fully functional linked data production system and determine what local
infrastructure and workflow processes will be needed. This workshop will include
presentations, demonstrations, and panel discussions that will: 1) provide an overview of
work being done with linked data editors (e.g., MARVA, Sinopia, JCricket), as well as future
work needed; 2) consider the various linked data workflows, both data-centric and peoplecentric,
that are being imagined; and 3) offer the perspective of an institution that is
currently operating in a linked data environment, including how are they doing it, why are
they doing it, and why they choose FOLIO.
