    STUDY OF CLASSICS IN INTRODUCTORY-LEVEL STUDENTS Emily Gering / [email protected] University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Information and Library Science
  2. INTRODUCTION: CADVCEVS !  Classification Approach to Data Visualization and Content

    Exploration Via Subject Guides !  a new approach to the traditional subject guide offered by libraries
  3. INTRODUCTION: SUBJECT GUIDES !  A traditional subject guide may include:

    !  books !  journals !  databases !  websites !  as well as any other topics the librarian feels would assist students with their research
  4. INTRODUCTION: THE QUESTION !  But what if the subject guide

    was more than that? !  What if the subject guide was not just basic reference, but also a teaching tool, a space for exploration, or a promotion of Classical Studies—depending on what it needs to be?
  5. LINKED DATA !  Linked Data is a method of using

    the Web to create meaningful links between data from multiple sources1 !  Links can be clickable !  or be “hidden” as encoded metadata that looks like normal text !  1Bizer, C, T. Heath, & T.
