Some stats on the usage of QRpedia can be found through
stats.wikimedia.org.uk
The feedback is, however, that as things stand at the moment it's not an
easy to use interface. This is something Wikimedia UK is keen to address
and we're looking at whether a skin can built around the tool.
Hopefully that would aid an already useful tool, but I don't know how long
it would take to customise. I appreciate GLAMs want to understand how often
QRcodes are being scanned and making this information easy to access is
important.

Thanks, Andy.
QRpedia is certainly one of the things I am going to mention, and so
is authority control.
However, the deactivation of the stats have made QRpedia less useful for
GLAMs.
Cheers,

and would appreciate any info or update that you might have on
GLAM-wiki or Open GLAM activities in relation to natural history
museums, botanical gardens, zoos or similar institutions.
QRpedia remains a viable option for botanical gardens - articles on
plants
and animals tend to appear in many languages.
ORCID will be important to those who publish, and can be included on
Wikipedia/ sister project user pages.
Hope the event goes well.
