Ethics in Linked Data (Critical Information
Organization in Lis)
Sinopsis
This edited collection brings together
contributions that explore ethics in linked
data initiatives. Discussions about linked data
and its potential are often utopian and
technophiliac, rarely examining darker
implications or harmful consequences. Since
technology cannot exist outside of social,
cultural, and economic spheres, it is important
for creators and stewards of linked data and its
related systems to recognize and address the
impact (whether intended or not, positive or
negative) on the communities, individuals
affected. Engaging in critical and ethical
analysis is ultimately an optimistic endeavor
aimed at exposing problematic issues, generating
best practices and guidelines, and opening up
positive and generative possibilities for the
implementation and use of linked data in GLAMS
(Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums, Special
Collections).The central premise of this book is
that it is imperative to foreground ethics
rather than apply them as an afterthought, to
acknowledge and mitigate the damage caused by
existing systems, to create a place and space of
justice for the minoritized, and to enable more
ethical outcomes in linked data projects. This
book collects the voices of practitioners,
technologists, and developers working on linked
data initiatives scholars working at the
intersection of ethics, cultural heritage, and
technology and workers in GLAMS, among others in
order to explore emerging and changing technical
and ethical landscapes. Contributions investigate
the intersection of linked data with such topics
as gender, indigenous knowledge, inclusive data
creation,

authority control, identity management, systems
design, codes of ethics, sustainability, critiques
of fundamental linked data models, and more.
