Abstract

Many different institutions create bibliographic data for manga, a style of Japanese comic. These institutions typically describe the same resources, but in different ways. The exchange of data would result in a more complete bibliographic data landscape for manga, however the majority exists in isolation from one another. In seeking to connect this data, this poster discusses a study that created a Linked Data model for manga, based on the Europeana Data Model and using Dublin Core and BIBFRAME vocabularies for bibliographic description. Data was collected and aggregated from Monash University’s JSC Manga Library, the Media Arts Database from the Japanese Agency for Cultural Affairs, and Wikipedia. This poster outlines the issues encountered in the creation of the model, the lessons learned from these issues, and possible future extensions of the study.
