There are mappings from [MARC 21 Format for Authority Data](https://www.loc.gov/marc/authority/) to MADS and from MADS to RDF (http://www.loc.gov/standards/mads/rdf/) with further mappings from mads-rdf to skos-rdf so the conversion should not be difficult. \r\n\r\nI also found [this tool](https://github.com/kefo/marcauth-2-madsrdf) to convert MADS to SKOS, but it does not seem to be maintained anymore. Having one reliable tool for all MARC formats to SKOS would be better then the current variety of distributed scripts.\r\n\r\nSome authority files that provide MARC data for testing (some of them only single records for human inspection): \r\n\r\n* http://id.loc.gov/authorities/ (several)\r\n* https://agclass.nal.usda.gov/download.shtml\r\n* http://scot.curriculum.edu.au/download.asp\r\n* http://realfagstermer.github.io/\r\n* http://natlib.govt.nz/about-us/open-data/nga-upoko-tukutuku-metadata\r\n* http://cantic.bnc.cat/\r\n* http://www.bnc.cat/lenoti/ \r\n* http://autority.nkp.cz/\r\n* http://www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/\r\n* https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rasuqam\r\n* Répertoire de Vedettes-Matière (internal only?)\r\n"}}
