Reconciling Author Identifiers Across Cultural Heritage Datasets

"Reconciling Author Identifiers Across Cultural Heritage Datasets" examines the problem of aligning author identifiers across collection systems that use different authority files and identifier schemes. The paper proposes a reconciliation workflow that combines string similarity, biographical metadata, and curator review to balance recall against editorial trust.

The work contributes a concrete reconciliation pattern to the Heritage Linked Data programme's linked open data integrations.
