This is a curated list of mostly mature and/or actively developed Clojure resources relevant for dealing with graph-like data. It's currently being expanded as I explore this area more thoroughly. Suggestions are welcome in the form of pull requests or Github issues. I try to steer around abandonware, though.

It is perhaps worth mentioning that several tools have been written in Clojure for making personal knowledge graphs through note-taking. The first one to appear was Roam Research (proprietary). It has since inspired Athens Research (open source, commercial) and Logseq (open source, community-driven). These tools are all based on libraries listed in the Datalog section.
RDF has a small, but steady Clojure following. People are using Neo4j with Clojure, but not talking much about it. Datomic-like Datalog databases have the most momentum.
