In Proceedings of 18th ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries (JCDL 2018) (pp. 371–372). Fort Worth, Texas: ACM. https://doi.org/10.1145/3197026.3203886978-1-4503-5178-2https://hdl.handle.net/10289/11928Scholars using digital libraries and archives routinely create worksets-aggregations of digital objects-as a way to segregate resources of interest for in-depth scrutiny. To illustrate how worksets can enhance the scholarly utility of digital library content, we distill from prior user studies three key objectives for worksets (extra-digital library manipulation, intra-item properties, and robust representations), and discuss how they motivated the workset model being developed at the HathiTrust Research Center (HTRC). We describe how HTRC's implementation of its RDF-compliant workset model helps to satisfy these objectives.application/pdfen© 2018 Copyright is held by the authors.computer sciencedigital librariesworksetsHathiTrustsemantic webRDFConference Contribution10.1145/3197026.3203886
