GLAM Booklet 2013
The GLAM Booklet 2013 is a 20 page booklet designed by Wikimedia UK in 2013. The purpose of the book is to be a physical handout for people in the Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums sector that introduces them to GLAM and Wikimedia, makes the case for the two to work together and gives some varied examples of cooperation between organisations..
This page is not part of the booklet, but instead explains the process. The subpages are text and pictures that are intended for individual pages in the book. To some extent the booklet is intended as a sister to the Wikipedia education Program booklet Case Studies:How Universities are teaching with Wikipedia though the design will reflect current Wikimedia UK design standards.
All content is available under an open license, so it is hoped that other Wikimedia GLAM programs will contribute content and also reuse content.
Apart from the front and back cover and pages 2 and 3, all pages are intended to work both individually and as double page spreads, this will be achieved by having contrasting approaches to the same issue on facing pages.
At some point in the future print on demand may fall to a price where we can afford to print batches of these for each event. But in the meantime we will follow the education example and not include any dates in the booklet
