My sixth academic publication, co-published with my fellow colleagues on the FLAME Project Lee Mordechai, Alan Stahl, and Mark Pyzyk, was published in the International Journal for Digital Humanities. Our article, entitled “Linked open data – solution or complication?”, offers a discussion of the opportunities and limitations of LOD across digital humanities projects, particularly focusing on the field of digital numismatics. Our experience with LOD has shown how much potential for collaboration can be enabled through the sharing and exchange of numismatic data, but it has also shown how difficult such collaboration can be. After offering examples of our experiences working with LOD, we propose a number of potential solutions to be adopted by future LOD projects. We conclude that “LOD remains both desirable and practicable, but only under sustained, field-level coordination rather than assumed universality.” If you are interested in exploring the full scope of our paper, please feel free to access it by using the following link:
