YEAH – You! Enhance Access to History
The YEAH! project, where the National Archives of Sweden, Estonia and Iceland together with the Lulea Technical University and Estonian Business Archives have worked on Linked Open Data is now finished.
The main outcomes of the project were three demonstrators (one for each country) and a handbook on how to create Linked Open Data (if it's your first time to do so). All the four mentioned items are referenced from the website
