Friday

Welcome

Welcome from Caroline Brazier, Director of Scholarship and Collections at the British Library.

Keynote

Keynote speech given by Michael Edson, Director of Web & New Media Strategy at the Smithsonian Institution.

Partnership Reports: UK

Reports on partnerships from around the UK, including the British Library, the National Archives, and institutions in Wales.

Open content: where are we today?

Two talks on the current state of open content and open data in the cultural sector

Nick Poole (Collections Trust) - "Digital Benchmarks for Museums & Arts Organisations"
A report on initial findings from the Digital Benchmarks program, a self-assessment tool for museums, galleries etc which posits the provision of linked open data and working in partnership with open communities as the ideal end-result of a museum’s digital evolution.
Beat Eastermann - "To what extent are GLAMs ready for Open Data and Crowdsourcing?"
Report of a pilot survey from Switzerland, talking to cultural institutions about the extent to which they are ready to adopt an open data policy and to engage in crowdsourcing approaches, including co-operations with the Wikipedia/Wikimedia community. Institutions were asked about the perceived risks and opportunities of such approaches, their attitudes towards "free" licensing, the extent of material already made available on the Internet, and previous experiences with volunteer work.

Working with digital content

Three short talks on aspects of dealing with open digital content and licensing.

Kat Walsh (Creative Commons) - "Creative Commons 4.0"
A short introduction to the new Creative Commons 4.0 licenses, and their development, from the perspective of cultural institutions.
Peter Weis - "Why Every Pixel Matters"
A short discussion of current approaches for and against high resolution content from different GLAM institutions on Wikimedia Commons; and an examination of the benefits of high resolution content for improving metadata through error reports, the potential for high quality digital restorations and the effects on outreach through re-use.
Sam Leon (Open Knowledge Foundation) - "Curating the Digital Commons"
In the past year the Open GLAM initiative, coordinated by the Open Knowledge Foundation, has been building communities, tools and resources for working with open cultural data and helping more cultural institutions to actively embrace openness. By far and away most successful Open GLAM project has been the Public Domain Review, an online journal for curated collections of curiosities from the digital public domain. In collaboration with GLAMWiki want to investigate how to encourage greater participation in this process of curating the digital commons, teaching people how to use existing portals into the public domain as means to enrich it and establish the infrastructure and standards that will allow a curatorial layer to flourish.

Lunchtime talk: The Rijksmuseum is Open

Talk by Lizzy Jongma, data manager at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.

Lunchtime talk: Europeana and Wikimedia

Talk by Geer Oskam, of Europeana.

A brief introduction to Europeana and what Europeana is working with, followed by an overview of Europeana's support and cooperation with the Wikimedia movement to date, from sponsoring Wiki Loves Monuments to the current cooperation between Europeana and both Wikimedia Sweden (with Europeana Awareness) and Wikimedia Netherlands (with batch uploads).

Partnership Reports: Worldwide

Engaging institutional staff

Europeana GLAM-Wiki Toolset

A shared presentation by Dan Entous (Europeana), Valentine Charles (Europeana) and Maarten Zeinstra (Kennisland).

A report on the state of development of the GLAMwiki Mediawiki-extension, the mapping of standard GLAM metadata standards to Wikimedia Commons templates and a preview of the final report on GLAM-requirements for statistics from the Wikimedia projects. The presentation will comprise a demo of the GLAMwiki tool extension, the working metadata mappings and a small number of sample uploads. A takeway from the presentation will be how you as a Wikipedian or a GLAM-professional can contribute to the project.

Partnership Reports: Worldwide

Reports on partnerships from around the UK, including the British Library, the National Archives, and institutions in Wales.
