Publishing Bibliographic Data on the Semantic Web Using BibBase

The authors present BibBase, a system for publishing and managing bibliographic data available in BibTeX files on the Semantic Web. BibBase uses a powerful yet light-weight approach to transform BibTeX files into rich Linked Data as well as custom HTML and RSS code that can readily be integrated within a user's website. The data can instantly be queried online on the system's SPARQL endpoint. In this demo, they present a brief overview of the features of the system and outline a few challenges in the design and implementation of such a system.
