The University of Auckland Library is the most extensive university library system in New Zealand and a national leader in the provision and development of digital resources. Its research repository has over one thousand open access journal articles, and thousands of open access theses. Many of these publications contain named entities, such as, titles, authors, venues, publisher, areas specific keywords, references, etc. Identifying, extracting and classifying these entities and elements will allow us to produce and publish open linked data related to each article, and in time, across University research. This project will deliver a platform independent, open source software to extract, discover, classify and visualise the linkage among the digital documents within the repository, i.e., cross-citation information and usage statistics. The library developers will provide the functional requirements and copies of open access PDFs and metadata records. The outcome of the project will be owned by the library for future research purposes, and used to enhance research repository views by embedding and integrating linked data.
