Candidate Statement - Laura Dawson

Nomination for IDPF Board of Directors, November 2012 election

Laura Dawson - Bowker

As Product Manager of Identifiers, I obviously have an interest in standards. Additionally, I am active in the linked data/semantic web movement, and would like to see some of those markups applied to books. At Bowker, we ingest EPUB files for indexing and search purposes, so having a voice in EPUB development is pretty important to us.
