Hi all ,
Thank you so much for this posting. I'm also the first ever WiR in the South African
Chapter [[WikimediaZA]] and this information is so much helpful to me especially when it
comes to reporting and what roles i can play to improve my work with the host institution.
This is my 3rd week working with the Johannesburg Heritage Foundation. I'm working on
a 4 months contract and though i try by all means to digitize as much documents and
pictures as i can however I don't see myself finishing all the work after the 4 months
because with each file I open there is a lot of untapped history most of which is not even
on the internet otherwise to cut a long story short , one of the hurdles that I've
faced is the licensing issue. The Johannesburg Heritage Foundation have chosen to release
their material into commons under this license Creative Commons —
Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International — CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 which according
to my understanding
it's not free. I'm interested in knowing under which license are the institutions
you've been working with releasing their material under ?
Kind regards

I would like to get the report printed for Wikimania -
if
you have any comments that would require changes
of content do let me know by Friday 4th July.
The report states:
'As a chapter then we have run the Wikimedian
in Residence programme since May 2012, when
Andrew Gray started his residency at the British
Library.'
As pointed out previously, this was not the first residency run by the
chapter. The first was at ARKive, in 2011.
