===Beyond pilot projects: Working Wikimedia into the workflow of an organization.===
*'''Presenter Name:''' [[w:User:LoriLee|Lori Phillips]]
*'''Talk Length:''' 20 min
*'''Talk Description:''' The ultimate goal of a GLAM-Wiki partnership is to establish an ongoing and sustaining program within a cultural institution. Successful long-term GLAM-Wiki partnerships are those who manage to incorporate Wikimedia into the everyday workflow, but we are only just beginning to understand what this might look like. This presentation will mark the beginning of the dialogue needed to establish best practices around long-term GLAM-Wiki cooperations, presenting one instance of an ongoing partnership that has worked to balance the museum staff's time with the needs of the Wikimedia community.

===Collaborating with a whole network of Public Libraries.===
*'''Presenter Name:''' Carme Fenoll, introduced by [[User:Kippelboy]]
*'''Talk Length:''' 20 min
*'''Talk Description:''' Wikipedia is the entrance door to knowledge in digital world, as libraries are in "real" world. So it makes sense to do things together. Following this principle, Amical has reached an agreement with the Cultural Department of the Government of Catalonia, to promote Wikipedia among the Network of Catalan Public Libraries. We are establishing lines of collaboration with the glamwiki community, making it bigger, deeper and incorporating new content and users. 150 professional public librarians have already received Wiki training, in order to subsequently invite library users to join wiki projects. Also 1500 copies of the ''Welcome to Wikipedia'' manual have been printed and spread among the Libraries network. Session will be presented by Carme Fenoll, Catalonia's Libaries Network Director & Àlex Hinojo, Amical GLAM-WIKI coordinator.

===State of GLAM in Catalonia===
*'''Presenter Name:''' [[User:Kippelboy]] (Àlex Hinojo)
*'''Talk Length:''' 20 min
*'''Talk Description:''' GLAMwiki is one of the most successful tracks in Catalan Wikipedia. In this presentation I will show how all-size institutions can get into GLAMwiki projects, showing several succesful projects, done without many resources but with the commitment of both communities: Wikipedians and GLAM professionals. I want to explain how non-English Wikipedias can enlarge their audiences and their editor's communities using existing cultural communities (i.e.:Friends of the museums, universities, museum-retired professionals...)

===Working together from shared ideals: Wikimedia NL and Teylers Museum===
*'''Presenter Name:''' [[User:gjjanse|Geert-Jan Janse]] & [[User:Spinster|Sandra Fauconnier]]
*'''Talk Length:''' 20 min
*'''Talk Description:''' Teylers Museum in Haarlem, the Netherlands was founded in 1778 as a centre for contemporary art and science. In line with the ideals of the Enlightenment the founders aimed to collect and share all knowledge available to mankind. The first purchase for the new museum was significant: the Encyclopédie by Diderot and d’Alembert. In 2001, Wikipedia was founded “to provide free access to the sum of human knowledge”. Based on the shared values and goals of both organisations, the Dutch chapter of Wikimedia and Teyler Museum have organised a writing challenge from January till June 2012 to expand the coverage on various topics related to Teylers Museum and its rich collections. Curators and Wikipedians have successfully worked together, resulting in over 300 new articles in more then 13 languages, including Esperanto,Catalan and Volapük. Why did this project take place, how was it organised, what were our experiences, what are the lessons learned and how do we hope to continue our fruitful collaboration? Geert-Jan Janse, project manager digitisation of Teylers Museum, and Sandra Fauconnier, board member for cultural projects at Wikimedia NL, will together present different aspects of this project from the point of view of both the museum and Wikimedia.

===Science GLAM===
*'''Presenter Name:''' Daniel Mietchen
*'''Talk Length:''' 20 min
*'''Talk Description:''' Science-related activities have so far taken a back seat within the GLAM:Wiki framework, but initial contacts with a number of science and natural history museums, botanical gardens, zoos, herbaria and similar institutions are encouraging. This session is devoted to reporting on what has happened so far as much as to seeding a strategy for things to come.

===A quarter of a Million edits: A new kind of Wikipedian in Residence===
*'''Presenter Name:''' [[User:Maximiliankleinoclc|Maximilian Klein]]
*'''Talk Length:''' 20
*'''Talk Description:''' As much as you think Wikipedia has a lot of information, there is an order of magnitude more bibliographic data. Part of this database can be usefully linked to Wikipedia - and Wikidata - in a meaningful way. This the story of, and lessons learned from, Max Klein's attempt to link Authority Control data with Wikipedia as part of his Residency with [[w:OCLC|OCLC]]. A case is made that Library data is of special importance to Wikipedia, and in the future, Wikidata. And a vision for a new kind of Wikipedian in Residence paradigm considering larger-scale long-term projects with focus on integrating data rather editing content.
====Comments====

===African content on Wikipedia===
*'''Presenter Name:''' [[User:iopensa|Iolanda Pensa]]
*'''Talk Length:''' 20 minutes
*'''Talk Description:''' Many GLAMs around the world have a rich documentation related to Africa; providing those contents to Wikipedia and the Wikimedia projects can foster their visibility and access, and it can contribute to the involvement of new national and international audiences in sharing their knowledge. The experience of the projects WikiAfrica and Share Your Knowledge, and the production of 30.000 African contribution to Wikipedia by 2012.

===This Means War: Wikipedia and The National Archives===
*'''Presenter Name:''' [[User:mr impossible|Jo Pugh]]
*'''Talk Length:''' 20 minutes
*'''Talk Description:''' Central government meets the open content revolution. Have the results been pretty? What have we achieved so far and what should be the aims for the future? [I'm not available on the 15th, unfortunately]

===Wiki Photographer / Wikipedia Photography Club===
*'''Presenter Name:''' [[user:nasir8891|Nasir Khan Saikat]]
*'''Talk Length:''' 25min
*'''Talk Description:''' We can encourage the group of people who loves to take photographs. This will help us to continue the GLAM activities all the year round and those places(countries) where the existing wiki community is not that big enough. I did a little homework on this topics and got some point which will be helpful
# In every university (in my country) there is a photography club/community
# in every 2weeks they arrange photowalks
# a large number of people share good quality photographs in Flickr, Facebook, Google plus and some other social sites
# most of then are interested to join contest
# they love to show their best photos with others

there are other few findings. Based on these i think we can encourage those group of people to contribute to Wikipedia. Wikimedia commons has its own structure to select the featured and quality images. We can use this to boost the interests of the participants. At the same time we can start to use the term ''Wiki Photographer'' for those wikipedians whose contributed images has been used at least 10 articles of the wikipedia. I have other few plans to extend the activities and involvements.

# they love to show their best photos with others

there are other few findings. Based on these i think we can encourage those group of people to contribute to Wikipedia. Wikimedia commons has its own structure to select the featured and quality images. We can use this to boost the interests of the participants. At the same time we can start to use the term ''Wiki Photographer'' for those wikipedians whose contributed images has been used at least 10 articles of the wikipedia. I have other few plans to extend the activities and involvements.
