SLUB LOD API documentation
The API provided by data.slub-dresden.de for Linked Open Data can be used to process datasets from different sources (K10Plus, SWB), enriched with norm data from multiple authority providers (GND, wikidata, SWB, …).
There is an interactive UI where you can experience the API directly and try out some requests with various options before coding them.
TL;DR
Explore our data
We provide a way to explore our data interactively using the exploratory search. It is a frontend that let you jump from topic to topic based on their existance and mutual occurences in our resources. Feel free to plunge into our data.
API usage
For a detailed overview with examples please have a look at API endpoints. If you are interested what information are contained in our API you might be interested in the Data Types page.
Connect with OpenRefine’s Reconciliation service
The API implements an interface to OpenRefine’s Reconciliation service through the endpoint /reconcile. So if you want to use the API with OpenRefine see the documentation with examples for the reconcile endpoint
Behind the scenes
If you are interested how the data was processed from the sources to end up in our API, you may want to have a look at the mappings page. Sources we have used are listed with their licence under Data Sources.
