NAISC-L advances the state-of-the-art by presenting an interlinking framework that facilitates the creation of relationship and identity links, and that is accessible via a GUI designed to support IPs. It is envisaged that the NAISC-L framework will have an impact on the adoption of LD in LAMs by facilitating IPs to create LD interlinks with greater ease and efficacy than existing LD tooling allows. NAISC-L is complementary to existing interlinking frameworks as it supports the creation of relationship links through an interlinking process that encourages the application of domain expert knowledge. Facilitating the application of domain expertise allows IPs to use their specialist knowledge of particular subject areas, as well as their tacit knowledge of the needs and interests of LAM users, for the creation of useful, interesting and creative interlinks. Additionally, the provision of provenance data, detailing IPs as the creators and curators of these interlinks, increases user trustworthiness. In sum, LAM metadata that has been enriched with authoritative interlinks, created by IPs, would improve **data** discovery and promote increased use of LAM resources by allowing users to navigate seamlessly between related entities held in internal and external datasets.
