The digital convergence of cultural institutions: reflections on the sidelines of <em>Advances in information and progress in knowledge</em>

Abstract

This paper draws a balance – starting from the detailed analysis of the book edited by Roberto Raieli, Advances in information and progress in knowledge: granularity, interoperability and data integration – of the state of the art and of the practical experience of cultural institutions of different nature and provenance around the use of linked open data (LOD) and of the semantic web, and tries to identify the lines of future development.
