An analysis of the implementation of linked data (LD) and linked open data (LOD) techniques in Europeana is presented.

Details of the work already done and the activities to be developed are provided. Then, the article examines the LOD implementation following the Europeana data model (EDM) for each of its components. Finally an assessment on the use of these techniques in the field of cultural institutions is done.
