Through the promotion of our work by publishing guides to what we do, education work, GLAM projects, How to Edit, [How to use Commons etc we offer online and in-the-hand material to enthuse newcomers and reinforce the learning we offer. Of course T-shirts, mugs and other merchandise work too to reward people, help them identify with our work, and help brand our workshops and conferences.
Some of the materials we create are based on existing resources, such as the contributing to Wikimedia Commons booklet produced by Sage Ross. Others, such as our GLAM booklet, will be created from scratch, with contributions from the community. They will be created and printed/shared online as demand arises for existing publications, or as need is demonstrated, such as the GLAM booklet.
Essentially, we use the materials to support outreach events, activities, and the Wikimedia UK volunteer community in general. The information booklets serve an aim of raising awareness of free knowledge and Wikimedia UK, eventually leading to more engagement of external parties with our projects.
