In this project, we propose five deliverables to ensure the longevity and usability of linkable musicological data: (1) authoritative or "minted" URIs for composers that can confidently be used to align/link related sources, and links to those composers in scholarly data sources (2) persistence of this URI resource (3) a suite of tools to enable new sources to be easily aligned with these URIs (4) a Codex to host pointers to any other linked data sources using our URIs (5) exemplary visualization/exploration interactions to show how the data can be used for knowledge building.
