In recent years, a growing level of attention has focused on Semantic Web technology and its potential application to the library catalog. Despite growing interest in the topic, it is unclear where perceptions currently are regarding the Semantic Web and linked data in the academic library community. This paper aims to ascertain levels of understanding of key concepts and attitudes regarding the Semantic Web and its role in the library catalog, with the hope of highlighting directions to move forward for advocates of the technology. To find the attitudes and perceptions of academic librarians, a survey of academic library catalogers and technical services professionals was created and distributed online. This paper found that an understanding of key terms and interest in the development of a Semantic Web catalog are high among the queried group, but barriers such as financial scarcity and lack of Semantic Web best practices may slow future development.
