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).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe central premise of this book is that it is imperative: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eto foreground ethics rather than apply them as an afterthought, \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eto acknowledge and mitigate the damage caused by existing systems, \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eto create a place and space of justice for the minoritized, \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eand to enable more ethical outcomes in linked data projects. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 492\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.99 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 15, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42093063667847,"sku":"9781634001335","price":86.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/c6ad87882bcf7fbde3274649930e71f4.webp?v=1732306955","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/ethics-in-linked-data-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
