This chapter of “Object Reuse and Exchange (OAI-ORE)” will introduce and explain some basic elements of RDF in order to “bootstrap” our exploration of ORE. The National Digital Newspaper Program at the Library of Congress will be used as a real-world example to complement a sequence of graphs that will illustrate Aggregations and Resource Maps, metadata, Aggregated Resources, and nested Aggregations.
