The main goal of TextileBase is to help dress history scholars and practitioners by creating a gateway to linked data that have been collected and stored by researchers and memory institutions. In that way it is a platform to collect, connect, and share meta- and research data on material, visual, and textual sources of historical clothing. We explain TextileBase as a linked, open, graph database in a different report. In this review we show how we placed a valuable, stand-alone dataset into this interoperable database.
