Book XML information for RDF trasformation

where I can find an xml file with the information about books ?

Let me better explain. If I want an XML file about music and artist I can found it on MusicMoz (http://musicmoz.org/xml/) If I want an XML file about music style I can fo开发者_开发知识库und it on MusicMoz always at the same site.

For my application I need to find information about books ( Book title, Author, Abstract, Genre of the book, and so on ) but i'm not be able to find it ! I searched DBpedia, Freebase, RDF Book Mashup, but I have not found what I was looking for ! Can you advice me ?

Once found the file, my application needs to trasform from XML to RDF and then load the RDF in the internal model of jena so I can merge this data source with other data source. Tia Danilo


The richest XML data format for this is MODS, which you can get from the Library of Congress for many items: http://lccn.loc.gov/94042974/mods

To look an item up with the Library of Congress, though, you'll need its LCCN, which you can usually fetch, given the ISBN, from OCLC's xISBN service: http://www.worldcat.org/affiliate/webservices/xisbn/app.jsp

There are multiple conventions for converting to RDF from MODS; you may want to explore MADS/RDF, one of the more authoritative ones: www.loc.gov/standards/mads/rdf/

If MODS is more complex than you need, you can also retrieve similar data from Amazon's affiliate API, and even OCLC's xISBN, mentioned above, provides the essentials.
