rethinking
Data is becoming a new source of contentions in the current networked information environments. Ambiguity about ownership and rights, fear about loss and abuse, and the increased velocity of its generation and circulation, these and other factors contribute to an uneasy relation between oneself and the data one is involved in its production, consumption, and dissemination. Cultural institutions such as libraries and museums are curators of artifacts, and are now much involved in the digitization of their content collections. Output from these digitization efforts can be simply viewed as data. What can and shall libraries and museums do with it? Open data is a technological and social trend in publishing, sharing, and linking data online. Several actors in the library, archive and museum (LAM) community have been using techniques and practices of Linking Open Data (LOD) in making their collections readily available and linkable on the web. In this talk, we will review some of the practices in the LOD-LAM community, and plan to involve the audience with a discussion on what open data is,and what cultural institutions are for.

Notas do Editor
- "The Library of Congress Authorities and Vocabularies service enables both humans and machines to programmatically access authority data at the Library of Congress. This service is influenced by -- and implements -- the Linked Data Offsite link movement's approach of exposing and inter-connecting data on the Web via dereferenceable URIs."
- "data.europeana.eu currently contains open metadata on 2.4 million texts, images, videos and sounds gathered by Europeana. These objects come from data providers who have reacted early and positively to Europeana's initiative of promoting more open data and new data exchange agreements. These collections come from 8 direct Europeana providers encompassing over 200 cultural institutions from 15 countries."
- "The Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL) is a consortium of natural history and botanical libraries that cooperate to digitize and make accessible the legacy literature of biodiversity held in their collections and to make that literature available for open access and responsible use as a part of a global “biodiversity commons.”
