Chew Chiat Naun. Transitional Strategies for MARC Cataloging 
How do we get from here to there? Our existing infrastructure is heavily based on MARC, but the MARC format itself has evolved in ways that can help smooth the path to adoption of linked data. This presentation will describe recent work by the PCC on incorporating linked data into MARC and suggest directions that cataloguing practice can take in response to these developments. 
Peter Chan. Video Game Controlled Vocabulary in Wikidata 
The talk will cover the process of creating video game controlled vocabulary in Wikidata and the translation of the vocabulary to 6 languages (English, German, French, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean). 
Marc McGee. Linked Data Descriptions for Scanned Cartographic Materials
The Harvard Map Collection is home to over 400,000 sheet maps dating back to the late 15th Century.  Over 5,000 of these maps have been scanned and are freely available for viewing through the Harvard Library image delivery service but remain largely undiscoverable outside of the Harvard Library online catalog.  This talk will focus on describing an LD4P2 subproject that is exploring the use of the LD4P Sinopia Linked Data Editor with the BIBFRAME 2.0 ontology and Wikidata items to produce linked data descriptions for scanned cartographic materials to enable broader discovery and re-use of these images on the open web. 
Nancy Fallgren. Serials in BIBFRAME
Serials cataloging is NLM’s bread and butter because of the importance of serials to the medical community and internal dependencies related to article indexing.  This is an update on the status of NLM’s LD4P2 Cohort task to improve serials cataloging in BIBFRAME.
Bradley Allen. Representing and Publishing Schottlaender's "Anything But Routine" as Linked Data
The work of the American Beat Generation author William S. Burroughs is notorious among collectors and bibliographers for its scale and complexity. In this presentation, we describe our objectives and experiences in representing, enhancing, and publishing the information in Brian E.C. Schottlaender’s “Anything But Routine: A Selectively Annotated Bibliography of William S. Burroughs, version 4.0” as linked data using BIBFRAME 2.0 and ARM ontologies.
Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight. Women Writers in Review - modeling the reception of pre-XX-century works by women writers 
Women Writers in Review is a collection of 18th- and 19th-century reviews, publication notices, literary histories, and other texts responding to works by early English-language women writers. It is published by the Northeastern University Women Writers Project with support from the Digital Scholarship Group at Northeastern University Libraries, and grant funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities. This session provides an introduction to the data, an explanation of how a digitized evaluation of reception of these works enriches the understanding of the data, and reviews potential ways of modeling it on Wikidata. It also addresses how development of a Wikidata model for this purpose could be adapted to other scholarly digital collections.
