SUMMARY:Critical perspectives on cultural heritage: Re-visiting digitisatio
 n
DESCRIPTION:Today\, the Semantic Web and Linked Open Data are creating new 
 value for the descriptive information in the cultural heritage sector. Lib
 raries\, museums\, heritage management and archives are seeing new possibi
 lities in sharing by turning their catalogues into open datasets that can 
 be directly accessed\, allowing cultural heritage data to be circulated\, 
 navigated\, analyzed and re-arranged at unprecedented levels. This is supp
 orted by research funding bodies\, governments and EU policies and numerou
 s political interests\, resulting in enormous investment in digitization p
 rojects which make cultural heritage information openly available and mach
 ine readable. But before deploying this data\, one must ask: is this data 
 fit for deployment?\n\nLibraries\, museums\, heritage management and archi
 ves have long histories. Both the collections they house and the language 
 they use(d) to describe said collections are products of that historical l
 egacy\, shaped by\, amongst others\, institutionalized colonialism\, racis
 m and patriarchy. Yet descriptive information is now being digitized and s
 hared as if that legacy is not inherent to the collections. Instead\, exis
 ting units of information are being distributed through new Web 3.0 techno
 logies\, bringing with it an outdated knowledge-base. Besides the risk of 
 progressive techniques being applied to regressive content\, we may also s
 acrifice the development of new knowledge in libraries\, museums\, heritag
 e management and archives aimed at facilitating socially sustainable futur
 es\, remediating exploitative historical legacies.\n\nFor this workshop\, 
 we have invited researchers and practitioners to discuss ways in which dig
 itisation approaches may be set up to change the nature and legacy of cult
 ural collection prior to digital dissemination.\n\nThe workshop is co-orga
 nized by Linnaeus University (specifically by Centre for Applied Heritage
  and iInstitute) as well as Swedish National Heritage Board.\n\nCo-orga
 nizers: Koraljka Golub\, Anders Högberg and Ahmad Kamal.\n\nProgramme\n\
