Abstract
En 中文
Purpose-This study aims to identify the factors influencing the adoption of linked data technology in library settings and to reveal associated challenges affecting its implementation. Design/methodology/approach-Systematic literature review methodology was applied to address the study's objectives. For the current research, 24 studies (peer-reviewed research papers and conference proceedings) were selected. Findings-Findings of the study displayed that enhanced discoverability, technological integration, metadata enrichment, user-centered design and institutional were strong motivators driving the adoption of linked data technology in libraries. However, technical limitations, lack of training, funding constraints, organizational unpreparedness, absence of standards and concerns about privacy negatively influenced the incorporation of linked data applications in library settings. Originality/value-The study has provided a framework to effectively adopt linked data applications in library environments.
