Connecting Islands: Bridging zbMATH and DLMF with Scholix, a blueprint for connecting expert knowledge systems

Abstract

This paper reports on the recently launched zbMATH Links API. We discuss its potential based on the initial link partner, the National Institute of Standards and Technology Digital Library of Mathematical Functions. As the API provides machine readable data in the links, we show how one can use data from both sources for further analysis. To exemplify the simplicity, we also show how one can use zbMATH’s link data in Jupyter notebooks.
