Linked Open Data in limbo: Co-creation as a catalyst for open cultural heritage resources - As the open culture movement gains momentum, a future with cultural heritage resources as LOD is within reach. In order to develop the infrastructure required for the public to freely access, research and remix collections, audience and institutions need to collaborate. This talk showcases PACKED LOD-projects on persistent identification, data enrichment and the potential of the Wikimedia ecosystem. It will also highlight areas in which independent developers can contribute.
