Event Contact: Mail: daria.cybulskawikimedia.org.uk Meet the community. » Andy M. "Helping Wikipedians, curators and archivists to collaborate to open up access to knowledge is very rewarding." » Roger B. "Be bold! You can work with a GLAM - just press their door bell!" » Harry M. "GLAM partnerships allow Wikipedians to access the wealth of knowledge collected by our cultural institutions and at the same time allow the GLAMs to share their knowledge with a far broader audience." » Richard S. "There are four or five GLAMs within walking distance of my house... Why aren't they on Wikipedia, too?"

GLAM-WIKI A global GLAM conference that Wikimedia UK is hosting in partnership with the British Library.

Join the UK GLAM community to discuss GLAM outreach in the UK GLAMcamp London is a GLAM set of workshops and presentations for Wikimedians active in outreach for UK cultural institutions. The aim is to build on the network of GLAM related e-volunteers. Attendees will also include key representatives of institutions who have a strong relationship with Wikimedia as well as prospective GLAM Ambassadors. The event builds on the success of GLAMcamp London in 2011. We will be discussing the structure of GLAM-WIKI 2012.     This will be an informal event, but as with last year's GLAM networking event there will be the opportunity to present on your special areas. Spaces are fairly limited, so preference will be for the most active GLAM ambassadors.   Workshops for the event Add your suggestions for workshops here.
