Abstract
Linked open data (LOD) methods are increasingly being applied to aggregate and integrate data and impact upon data and technical infrastructures enabling resource discovery and interoperability. In October to November 2015, the authors visited nine teams leading the way with LOD practices, in programmes, institutes, universities, and libraries in the USA, Europe, and the UK. This paper presents the nature of LOD methods, the context for practice change, insights from site visits as exemplars of practice change, and an accompanying analysis in support of Australian GLAMs (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums) practice change.

Abstract
Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums (GLAMs) have a long and rich history in providing services and maintaining collections in support of humanities research. New methods of scholarly research in the digital humanities have emerged. GLAM “data” is in the main still delivered in ways that suit traditional methods of research, that is, through a website, an online catalogue or exhibition, and social media sites. GLAMs can extend their collection services and repackage their content to meet increasing technical requirements of digital humanities researchers by making the content available in new ways.

Abstract
The premise underlying this paper is that the cultural collecting sector, that is, galleries, libraries, archives and museums (GLAMs) have established description practices, communities of practice, and shared interest in collaboration and exploiting Linked Open Data (LOD) technologies to improve resource discovery of cultural collections online. The question posed is a means of unpacking: what LOD means in technical terms; what other technologies support resource discovery; what impact using LOD might have on collecting sector description practices and more widely in other sectors with increasing levels of openness in the provision of data and metadata, such as eResearch and government sectors.
