Hi Josh,
You might ask on the Omeka developers' list about how the Omeka
development team created their "LC Suggest" plugin -- they could
probably give you tips. Here's the listserv:

Does anyone know of any web service that allows for automated harvesting of LOC Subject Headings? I am also looking for name authorities, for that matter. Any format will be acceptable to me: RDF, XML, JSON, HTML, CSV... I have spent a while Googling with no luck, but this seems like the sort of general-purpose thing that a lot of people would be interested in. I feel like I must be missing something. Any help is appreciated.
