Summary/Abstract: This paper describes open and linked open datasets of the National Library of Latvia (NLL) that are available to researchers. This includes data from the linked digital collection Rainis and Aspazija, the National Thesaurus and National Bibliography datasets and the dataset of Latvia’s publishing statistics. These datasets are published on NLL’s open data portal https://dati.lnb.lv/ and are available for research and reuse. The datasets have been published as part of the project Latvian memory institution data in the digital space: connecting cultural heritage (No. lzp-2019/1-0365), which is funded by the Fundamental and Applied Research Programme of the Latvian Council of Science. The paper describes the methods used for the dataset analysis, processing and transformation as well as the necessary data improvements. It also looks at the possibilities to use these datasets for cooperation with related fields (e.g. archives and museums) and at the plans for improvements and additions to the datasets and the open data portal.
