[open-bibliography] New BNB sample data available

Yes, it is to reflect the different granularity. The data in the 260$a
is at the city, town level whereas the data recorded in the 008/15-17 in
the MARC record is at the country level. We thought it may be helpful to
keep that distinction but if the consensus is that it is not, then we
can use the same element.

Corine - is there any reason why the place of publication from 260 is
done as isbd:P1016 while the new country code is put into
rda:placeOfProduction ?

This is to let you know that there are two new sample data files
available from our website

http://www.bl.uk/bibliographic/datasamples.html

The first file is an updated version of the BNB in RDF/XML. The
substantive change is that the conversion now carries over the MARC
country code for the place of publication.

The second file is based on the same conversion but includes links to
linked data sources: LCSH in SKOS, MARC country and language codes,
Dewey info, Lexvo, GeoNames and the RDF Book Mashup.

Feedback welcome.

Cheers
