As part of our mission to provide resources and tools for libraries, archives, and museums, the Smithsonian Institution hosted a brown bag lunch workshop on Historypin on Sept. 14, followed by a day of Linked Open Data in Libraries, Archives, and Museums (“LODLAM”) on Sept. 16, 2011. This included the presentation, An Introduction to Linked Open Data in Libraries, Archives & Museums. The talk was webcast live and archived thanks to the generous support of the Smithsonian CTO Series. I’d also like to thank Effie Kapsalis for her amazing organizing efforts around these events, the many staff at the Smithsonian who helped make this a reality, and a great group of participants. The LODLAM events were also supported by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and the National Endowment of the Humanities, through their support of the LODLAM Summit.

Below are the slides. Both the video presentation and the slides are available as CC BY for you to use as you see fit.
