Share your insights into the linked data ecosystem survey

Do you work with linked data in the humanities or cultural heritage sectors?

Help us understand the current state of—and possible future directions for—the linked data ecosystem.

Do you create or use linked data or linked open data? Are you a student or researcher or do you work in the galleries, libraries, archives, museums (GLAM) or government sectors? Would you like to contribute to research about the current state of humanities and cultural heritage linked data? Do you have ideas about where the sector might go in the future?

The Forward Linking partnership is asking members of the humanities and cultural heritage spheres about your experiences creating and using linked data, what parts of the current ecosystem you use, and where you see gaps and possibilities.

We want to learn from your experience of the linked data ecosystem.

Please give us 15–20 minutes of your time to fill out a survey.

The survey asks about your experience of linked data, the tools and standards you use, and your ideas about future directions for linked data for the humanities and cultural heritage sector. At the end of the survey, there is an option to provide your contact information if you’d like to volunteer to take part in a focus group or interview later this year.
