One interesting ontology with a somewhat different application than most
of
what I've been reviewing is the ABC Ontology and Model. It's an
international
digital library effort with Cornell Univ. staff working on it for the
US.  I'm
attaching a paper by Carl Lagoze (Cornell) and Jane Hunter (DSTC Pty,
Ltd,
Australia) for your review of it.

Regards, Norma
