OBJECTIVES
The paper (1) introduces health sciences librarians to the main concepts and principles of the Semantic Web (SW) and (2) briefly reviews a number of projects on the handling of biomedical information that uses SW technology.
METHODOLOGY
The paper is structured into two main parts. "Semantic Web Technology" provides a high-level description, with examples, of the main standards and concepts: extensible markup language (XML), Resource Description Framework (RDF), RDF Schema (RDFS), ontologies, and their utility in information retrieval, concluding with mention of more advanced SW languages and their characteristics. "Semantic Web Applications and Research Projects in the Biomedical Field" is a brief review of the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS), Generalised Architecture for Languages, Encyclopedias and Nomenclatures in Medicine (GALEN), HealthCyberMap, LinkBase, and the thesaurus of the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The paper also mentions other benefits and by-products of the SW, citing projects related to them.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS
Some of the problems facing the SW vision are presented, especially the ways in which the librarians' expertise in organizing knowledge and in structuring information may contribute to SW projects.
目标
本文（1）向健康科学图书馆员介绍语义网（SW）的主要概念和原则，（2）简要回顾一些使用SW技术处理生物医学信息的项目。
方法
本文分为两个主要部分。“语义网技术”对主要标准和概念进行了高层次描述，并举例说明：可扩展标记语言（XML）、资源描述框架（RDF）、RDF模式（RDFS）、本体，以及它们在信息检索中的效用，最后提到了更高级的SW语言及其特点。“生物医学领域的语义网应用与研究项目”简要回顾了统一医学语言系统（UMLS）、医学语言、百科全书和术语的通用架构（GALEN）、健康网络地图、链接库以及美国国立癌症研究所（NCI）的叙词表。本文还提到了SW的其他益处和副产品，并列举了与之相关的项目。
讨论与结论
介绍了语义网愿景面临的一些问题，特别是图书馆员在组织知识和构建信息方面的专业知识可能对语义网项目做出贡献的方式。
