That’s very simple:

1. Determine where you want to store a collection of RDF sentences e.g., a Solid Pod
2. Obtain the URI for each book
3. Write a sentence indicating that you’ve read, like, or own a given book.

Here’s an example using RDF-Turtle and a deployment pattern called [Nanotation](http://kidehen.blogspot.com/2014/07/nanotation.html) that turns my example into live Linked Data via the OpenLink Structured Data Sniffer (OSDS) browser extension (available for Web Extensions compliant Browsers e.g., [Chrome, Edge, Opera, Brave](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/openlink-structured-data/egdaiaihbdoiibopledjahjaihbmjhdj?hl=en) etc… and [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/openlink-structured-data-sniff/)).

Here’s a screenshot of what’s revealed in your browser, courtesy of OSDS.

In addition, OSDS is a Solid-compliant application that provides a “Save As” feature for [saving RDF to Solid Pods](http://forum.solidproject.org/t/solid-and-save-as-single-page-application-functionality/1575), subject to WebACLS configured for said pods.

**Conclusion**

One you save your RDF statements about your book to a Solid Pod the process of building your Federated Book Information Sharing Platform has pretty much begun. Getting more of your friends, family, and acquaintances to do the same simply builds a Web around this information, courtesy of RDF statements constructed using Linked Data principles.
