WRT QR codes: I brought this up when chatting with the British
Library. If it were part of a temporary exhibition (the BL has a funky
new-media room in the foyer area, for example) then a demo using QR
codes and a free smart phone app(*) would be an easy thing to show off
and less controversial than sticking new labels all over a museum. As
the QR codes can point to an official website (or database record for
the item) this would not need to be a Wikipedia specific initiative.
If someone is into this technology, perhaps we can make such a demo
part of an upcoming workshop/edit-a-thon event with a relevant GLAM
(like Derby or the BL)?
(*) The BL recently made a great hoo-ha about their new smart phone
app, see
