中文摘要

Purpose: This paper aims to study relationships existing in Chinese rubbings to supplement the Relationship Taxonomy for Linked Data Models of Chinese Resources (Relationship Taxonomy), for the purpose of Linked Data modeling and further enhancing the discoverability and visibility of Chinese library resources. Design/methodology/approach: This study adopts a qualitative content analysis method and purposive sampling strategy. Two datasets, the Chinese Rubbings Collection from the Fine Arts Library and Harvard-Yenching Library and the rubbings records from the Palace Museum (Beijing), with around 5,500 records in total, were used to analyze the relationships. The Chinese rubbings collection with 524 rubbing records from the Smithsonian National Museum of Asian Art was used to evaluate the Relationship Taxonomy. Findings: A four-layer relationship model of Chinese rubbings was created. Supplementary relationships of resource-resource, person-resource, and person-person relationships were added to the existing Relationship Taxonomy. Resource-event was added as a fourth top-level category. Chinese rubbings collections were a good supplement to the Relationship Taxonomy. Originality: This study examines the relationships in Chinese rubbings in a Linked Data context. Relationships were added to improve the Relationship Taxonomy. The Relationship Taxonomy is new and culturally specific. Research limitations/implications: The proposed rubbings relationship model is a good reference to examine relationships for other artworks and artifacts. It can also be extended to the rubbings created in other cultures/countries. Practical implications: The Relationship Taxonomy can be used as predicates (linkages) to create RDF triples. It can also be used to improve resource cataloging especially the cataloging of rubbings and their objects. More plentiful relationships also help improve information retrieval and knowledge discovery. Social implications: This study provides a window to help readers become familiar with a specific type of Chinese historical resource and its contributions to the digital age.

英文摘要

本文研究中文拓片關係,以對中文資源關聯數據模型的關係分類法進行補充,旨在對關係數據建模並提升資源的可發現性和可見性。本研究採用定性內容分析方法和立意抽樣策略,共採用約5,500條中文拓片數據。本研究建立了四層中文拓片關係模型;補充了資源對資源、人對資源以及人對人的關係;新增了資源對事件一級類目。我們採用了美國史密森尼亞洲藝術博物館(National Museum of Asian Art)的524件拓片資料集對中文資源關聯數據模型的關係分類法進行了評估。拓片關係模型對於研究其他拓片、藝術品和古器物有著很好的參考作用。中文拓片對已有的關係分類法起了很好的補充作用。新的關係分類法具有文化特殊性,能用作RDF三元組謂詞(連接),改進拓片及文物資源編目,也有助於資訊檢索和知識發現。本研究為讀者提供了一個視窗來探視中華歷史資源及其對數位時代的貢獻。
