Library bibliographic data, in most libraries, is still stored in the same broken-by-design format that they've been using for forty years. This limits the questions that can be asked of a library catalog. I have an idea, and am starting foundational code work, on a system for using RDF to empower library catalogs to answer more questions, without disrupting existing cataloging data or workflows.
