Large-scale digitization in Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums (GLAM) created the conditions for providing access to collections as data. It opened new opportunities to explore, use and reuse digital collections. Strong proponents of collections as data are the Innovation Labs which provided numerous examples of publishing datasets under open licenses in order to reuse digital content in novel and creative ways. Within the current transition to the emerging data spaces, clouds for cultural heritage and open science, the need to identify practices which support more GLAM institutions to offer datasets becomes a priority, especially within the smaller and medium-sized institutions. This paper answers the need to support GLAM institutions in facilitating the transition into publishing their digital content and to introduce collections as data services; this will also help their future efficient contribution to data spaces and cultural heritage clouds. It offers a checklist that can be used for both creating and evaluating digital collections suitable for computational use. The main contributions of this paper are i) a methodology for devising a checklist to create and assess digital collections for computational use; ii) a checklist to create and assess digital collections suitable for use with computational methods; iii) the assessment of the checklist against the practice of institutions innovating in the Collections as data field; and iv) the results obtained after the application and recommendations for the use of the checklist in GLAM institutions.

翻译：美术馆、图书馆、档案馆和博物馆（GLAM）的大规模数字化为将馆藏作为数据集开放获取创造了条件，并开启了探索、使用和再利用数字馆藏的新机遇。创新实验室是馆藏作为数据集的坚定支持者，它们提供了大量在开放许可下发布数据集以创造性方式新颖再利用数字内容的范例。在当前向新兴数据空间、文化遗产云和开放科学过渡的背景下，识别支持更多GLAM机构（尤其是中小型机构）提供数据集的实践方法成为优先事项。本文旨在满足支持GLAM机构促进其数字内容发布转型并引入馆藏即数据服务的需求；这也将有助于它们未来高效地贡献于数据空间和文化遗产云。本文提出了一份可用于创建和评估适用于计算化使用的数字馆藏的检查清单。本文的主要贡献包括：i) 一种设计检查清单以创建和评估适用于计算化使用的数字馆藏的方法论；ii) 一份用于创建和评估适合计算方法使用的数字馆藏的检查清单；iii) 针对在馆藏即数据领域进行创新的机构实践对检查清单进行的评估；以及 iv) 应用检查清单后获得的结果及对GLAM机构使用该检查清单的建议。
