LC Name Authority File Available as Linked Data
From Legal Informatics Blog:
The Library of Congress has made available the LC Name Authority File as Linked Data.
The data are available in several formats, including RDF/XML, N-Triples, and JSON.
Of particular interest to the legal informatics community is the fact that the Linked Data version of the LC Name Authority File includes records for names of very large numbers of government entities — as well as of other kinds of organizations, such as corporations, and individuals — of the U.S., Canada, the U.K., France, India, and many other nations. The file also includes many records for individual statutes.
Interesting post that focuses on law related authority records.
