For vocabs that model RWOs in id.loc.gov (and we're using those URIs in application profiles) add lookups.

Waiting on LOC to provide a list, but we know LCNAF (minus Name/Titles and Titles) will need this.

There's an API for RWOs: https://id.loc.gov/rwo/agents/suggest2/?q=. This API doesn't currently allow filtering by type (Persons, Orgs, etc.)

This is different than what the non-RWO lookups use in the Samvera Gem, see: #364. Perhaps we could create a new lookup that builds off the gem, swapping out URIs starting with http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ with http://id.loc.gov/rwo/agents/

If we go with the latter we'll need:

  • Persons
  • Conferences
  • Organizations
  • Geographics
  • Families

I'm just remembering now that for the non-RWO lookups we already had to override the Samvera results because they started with "info:...", see: https://github.com/samvera/questioning_authority/wiki/Connecting-to-Library-of-Congress-%28LOC%29. This new lookup just add http://id.loc.gov/rwo/agents/ prefix instead of http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/.

For my own reference:
https://id.loc.gov/search/?q=memberOf:http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/collection_LCNAF

Persons -> rdftype:PersonalName
Conferences -> ConferenceName
Organizations -> CorporateName
Geographics -> Geographic
Families -> FamilyName

Right. Sorry I should have mentioned that. We just need the results returned with the rwo URL.

@sfolsom Sorry for the delay! Please approve LD4P/qa_server_container#96, and we'll be able to merge and test.
