Abstract
The Semantic Web promises powerful new functionality for bibliographic databases by combining bibliographic informa- tion with knowledge about the world. However, the kinds of representation that are possible in Semantic Web languages are not widely understood in the LIS community. In partic- ular, the W3C Semantic Web ontology languages RDFS and OWL are not su ciently expressive to deliver the full range of inferences anticipated for bibliographic applications, and will require formalized rules from other speci cations.
