Dear all,

I would like to bring to your attention a proposed interest group within
the Research Data Alliance (https://rd-alliance.org/) on vocabulary
services in research communities.  Our goal is to bring together a
global community to develop recommendations on approaches to publication
and use of controlled vocabularies on the web.



We are reaching out to you because you were recommended to us as someone
with experience or interest in developing vocabulary services.  We are
very keen on having a large contingent of practioners with real-world
experience to provide input into the interest group and would be very
happy to have you join our group.

If you are interested in participating in the interest group please sign
up for the group
at
https://rd-alliance.org/group/vocabulary-services-interest-group/case-statement/vocabulary-services-interest-groups.html.

The draft charter for the group is available
at
https://rd-alliance.org/group/vocabulary-services-interest-group/case-statement/vocabulary-services-interest-groups.html

Thank you for your time,
- Stephan Zednik, Simon Cox, Adam Leadbetter, and Adam Shepherd (group
co-chairs)
