Is there an easy-to-use tool for schema.org microdata? I was fond of the OCLC NJ COinS tool, but it has gone. Anything of that ilk?

There are undoubtedly more clients out there that can make sense of HTML5 microdata than COinS, which is really showing its age and is a niche technology. -Mike On Fri, Jan 17, 2014 at 10:25 AM, Chad Mills <[log in to unmask]>wrote: > Jodi, > > No. I am working with our repository resources which is an eclectic > mixture of resource types.
