Just so -- the fact that not only the images but also their metadata was released under CC0, is highly important. It allowed us to add it to Wikidata, which offers new and exciting opportunities of discoverability, while ensuring easy dissemination, reuse and remix throughout Wikimedia projects, and also across different languages, as Wikidata is multi-lingual (unlike Wikipedia, where each language has its own site). This is a big step forward toward helping people across the world find and use this wonderful collection.
Kudos again to all those involved and hope to see many more institutions opening up their collections in the coming years.

Great work. As far as I know, this was also in collaboration with the Wikimedia GLAM & Wikidata communities, which uploaded the images to Wikimedia Commons as well as added the metadata to Wikidata. Here's a link to the query that shows a gallery of all the items added to Wikidata - http://tinyurl.com/y94k7col
