“…This was taken as a separate theme as it was mentioned explicitly by these studies, and primarily reveals an awareness of and alignment with the discourse that surrounds linked data. This aspect was mentioned by Valentino [17], Niang et al [43], Tallerås et al [44], Winer [28], de Boer et al [45], and Binding and Tudhope [46].…”

“…Given that many of these texts were all case studies [16,17,18,19], which were therefore focussed on describing the outcomes of their project rather than placing their findings in a wider context, the consideration of alternative perspectives was not deemed to be a key assessment criterion for this study, as the primary concern of these studies was exploration and description of individual cases rather than assessment of wider contexts. The manner of composition was also not considered a disqualifying factor as this varied significantly across the literature and proved difficult to apply to conference papers and journal articles equally.…”

“…These studies were exploratory in the sense that they were generally concerned with exploring the possible uses or trialling new methods of using linked data in cultural heritage sector. This theme includes those that wished to develop tools or guidelines in order to aid others in implementing similar projects [17,20,37]. This also includes those that take on projects not due to a particular institutional goal, but in order to participate in, or explore the benefits of, the linked data movement [19,40].…”

“…This theme was taken in articles which value linked data for its ability to make their collections visible or to bring attention to their institution. This includes studies which centred around a particular collection, rather than being focused primarily on the technology [17,27,33].…”

“…This was by far the most frequently cited reason for undertaking a linked data project, seen in 23 of these studies. These projects are motivated by the desire to publish data to fulfil a specific research need [29,36,41,46], to make specific collections more accessible for research [17,48,49,50] or to create tools to improve the experience of researchers [38].…”

The cultural heritage sector has traditionally been concerned with sharing resources and furthering human knowledge, with particular interest to the issues associated with metadata and interoperability, especially when it comes to the use of technology. These goals and interests in the cultural heritage sector are natural alignments with those of linked data; hence. there has been an increasing interest in the application of linked data in this sector. This article studies the implementation of linked data in the cultural heritage sector, through a systematic literature review of case studies of linked data implementation projects in this sector. The results reflect on the parties involved, the level of collaboration, and the motivation behind these projects. The study suggests that universities and national institutions were the main players in implementing such technologies in the cultural heritage sector, suggesting that there may be some barriers preventing smaller GLAM institutions from implementing linked data projects. The results further suggest that many linked data projects in this sector were primarily exploratory projects, and often performed in a collaborative manner. They further indicate that the most common motivating factors behind these projects were research needs, a desire to contribute to linked data as a movement, and other specific user needs. Reflecting on this systematic literature review, this article makes a set of recommendations for future work to increase the use of linked data in the cultural heritage sector and to remove barriers to adoption.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to construct a digital collection and database of traditional clothing that is convenient for the digital dissemination and application of traditional clothing and provide resources for research on clothing fashion, traditional clothing techniques, clothing culture, history and clothing teaching. Design/methodology/approach A real object analysis method was used in this paper, based on 15 core elements of the internationally common DC metadata standard, and with consideration to the characteristics of clothing products and clothing industry application specifications, the core elements of DC are expanded to facilitate the detailed record of the characteristic information of clothing, especially the implicit clothing culture. A code symbol compilation method was developed to give each piece of clothing a unique number, facilitating identification, classification and recording. At last, a metadata construction scheme for traditional clothing was developed. A traditional embroidered children's hat and Mamianqunt serve as examples to demonstrate the metadata elements. Findings The clothing meta-database provides a main body of traditional clothing while also paying attention to the collection of cultural elements. It is composed of five layers of classified data, source data, characteristic data, connotation data and management data, as well as 28 data elements, providing ease of sharing and interoperation. Originality/value This paper expands the subset of fashion metadata by describing traditional clothing metadata, especially the excavation of clothing cultural elements, and developing code compilation methods so that each clothing product can obtain a unique identification number, thereby building a traditional clothing metadata construction scheme consisting of five data layers and containing 28 data elements. This scheme records the information about each layer of traditional clothing in detail and provides shared data for discipline research and industry applications.
