Abstrakt: This paper discusses problems of creating and using ontology library services in production use. One approach to a solution is presented with an online implementation–the Finnish Ontology Library Service ONKI– that is in pilot use on a national level in Finland. ONKI contributes to previous research on ontology libraries in many ways: First, mashup and web service support with various tools is provided for cost-efficient utilization of ontologies in indexing and search applications. Second, services covering the different phases of the ontology life cycle are provided. Third, the services are provided and used in real world applications on a national scale. Fourth, the ontology framework is being developed by a collaborative effort by organizations representing different application domains, such as health, culture, and business. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
