This technical report D4.1 presents the interim deliverables of Work Package 4 of the SPICE project, focusing on the Linked Data server technologies. After describing the content and scope of the document in the introduction, the report presents insights on the Citizen Curation paradigm it performs an analysis of the state of art technologies for Linked Data content management. Furthermore, it provides insights on the status of data management in SPICE museums. After devising requirements for a data infrastructure based on the performed analyses, the report describes the design of a Linked Data Layer, a collection of components and protocols for data communication and exchange across the SPICE network. These include the SPICE Linked Data Hub, a data management and publishing infrastructure, and the SPARQL Anything tool, to support knowledge engineers in transforming heterogenous resources into Linked Data. Specifically, the SPICE Linked Data Hub supports a privacy‐aware data sharing platform and innovative technologies for publishing Linked Data from legacy resources. Finally, the report shows preliminary work on applying the infrastructure to develop a dashboard for data‐driven decision making, targeting musem curators as primary users, and social media content as first‐class citizen. 4 Deliverable 4.1 SPICE GA 870811 v1.0 ‐ 30/04/2021 Document History Version Release date Summary of changes Author(s) ‐Institution V0.1 15/02/2021 Deliverable structure and
