The poster was attached as a .jpg file, but I don't know why, it was .jpg_ so you
should remove the _ to see it.

Hi Barbara!
The museum exposes the information about QRpedia at the entrance, so the visitors know
about it since the beginning of the visit. The information poster is the first attached
file of the first email.
How do you see it? :-)

Hi,
congratulations Miguel! This is very facinating and indeed QR Pedia
Codes are are very attractive way to link Wikipedia articles to
exhibits in museums. Andy Maybett has stressed that several times
before.
How did You and or the museum solve the question to inform the viewer
of the QR code where he will arrive once scanned the code? Did a
legend to the QR code indicate that the trip will end in the Wikipedia
or did you indicate it by using the WP logo? In Germany there is quite
some interest for further use of QR Pedia codes, but I would love to
have the branding question solved.
Did WMUK and the QRPedia folks settle their appointments yet??

Hi all.
I am very pleased to present you the first GLAM
collaboration started by
Wikimedia Spain.
In September we first contacted the press department
of the Science Museum
of Valladolid, one of the most important museums in
the Spanish region of
Castile and León. We did so because this museum was
uploading materials to
Wikimedia Commons and starting articles on the Spanish
Wikipedia, so we
assumed that they might be receptive to further
cooperation... and here we
are!
After some meetings in October and November now we can
see the first steps
made by this GLAM cooperation.
The Science Museum has included QRpedia codes in the
exhibitions related
with some scientists like Louis Pasteur, Dmitri
Mendeleev or Rosalind
Franklin. They have called this feature "Stars of
the science", and the
museum sees QRpedia codes as an unique opportunity to
approach the ~2600
foreign visitors per year they have.
Furthermore, we have planned activities for the first
months of 2013 like a
Wikipedia workshop and an Edit-a-thon, but we will
keep you posted about
this in the coming months!
I attach you some pictures of the final result and we
will thank you any
help with the translation of the article about the
museum :-)
PD: any suggestions about how to keep this posted on
the Outreach wiki??
Best,
--
