Tracking provenance of RDF resources is an important task in Linked Data generating applications. It takes on a central function in gathering information as well as workflow. Various Linked Data generating applications have evolved for converting legacy data to RDF resources. These data belong to bibliographic, geographic, government, publications, and cross-domains. However, most of them do not support tracking data and workflow provenance for individual RDF resources. In such cases, it is required for those applications to track, store and disseminate provenance information describing their source data and involved operations. In this article, we introduce an approach for tracking provenance of RDF resources. Provenance information is tracked during the conversion process and it is stored into the triple store. Thereafter, this information is disseminated using provenance URIs. The proposed framework has been analyzed using Harvard Library Bibliographic Datasets. The evaluation has been made on datasets through converting legacy data into RDF and Linked Data with provenance. The outcome has been quiet promising in the sense that it enables data publishers to generate relevant provenance information while taking less time and efforts.
