We then describe the development of an automatic system for subject indexing of library metadata records with Wikipedia concepts as an important step towards library\u2013Wikipedia integration. The proposed system is based on first identifying all Wikipedia concepts occurring in the metadata elements of library records. This is then followed by training and deploying generic machine learning algorithms to automatically select those concepts which most accurately reflect the core subjects of the library materials whose records are being indexed. We have assessed the performance of the developed system using standard information retrieval measures of precision, recall and F-score on a dataset consisting of 100 library metadata records manually indexed with a total of 469 Wikipedia concepts. The evaluation results show that the developed system is capable of achieving an averaged F-score as high as 0.92. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0165551513514932","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,12,21]],"date-time":"2013-12-21T02:53:41Z","timestamp":1387594421000},"page":"211-221","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Towards linking libraries and Wikipedia: automatic subject indexing of library records with Wikipedia concepts"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"40","author":[{"given":"Arash","family":"Joorabchi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, University of Limerick, Ireland"}]},{"given":"Abdulhussain E.","family":"Mahdi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, University of Limerick, Ireland"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,12,20]]},"reference":[{"volume-title":"Perceptions of libraries and information resources: A report to the OCLC membership","year":"2005","author":"De Rosa C","key":"bibr1-0165551513514932"},{"key":"bibr2-0165551513514932","unstructured":"Safran N.
