The meeting's over. Video should or will be up on youtube (and maybe
eventually commons?) watch the glamout page onwiki.

Hi all!****
** **
We will be hosting our next edition of the GLAMout tomorrow (or today,
depending on your time zone!), July 12, starting at 3 p.m. EDT (12 p.m. PDT
/ 07:00 UTC). GLAMout is an opportunity to share news and information with
one another, and hear what is going on in GLAM-Wiki. This month, we will be
hearing about the Chemical Heritage Foundation's new Wikipedian in
Residence and latest editathon, the Smithsonian Institution Archives'
editathon, and the GLAM-Wiki US Consortium's new Wikimedia affiliate status.
We are still looking for more participants! If you have your own GLAM-Wiki
news to share, or would simply like to be part of the on-air conversation,
please sign up at:**

And you can also watch the broadcast live on YouTube, and send in
questions/comments to the participants using the #glamwiki hashtag. We will
be tweeting the link to the live video on that hashtag from @glamwiki
shortly before the broadcast, so please follow along!

The decision to pursue affiliation was one of the main outcomes of the Consortium's advisory group meeting in April. We see this as an important step in our evolution as a group, and for the GLAM-Wiki movement in the US. See below for the resolution.

Dear everybody,
Sorry for cross posting.
On Saturday the 29th of June, there will be a number of WWI
edit-a-thons organized in Europe and Australia! So far six countries have edit-a-thons planned and volunteers from two other countries are planning online events in two other Wikipedia
language versions!
This is an initiative by Wikimedia Sverige, in cooperation with Europeana,
and we would like to invite all of you to organize a small gathering in your
country/hometown; create an online contest in your language version; or
simply join one of the existing ones – simply sign up on Meta or drop me an email if you have any questions!
If you, as a participant, use the images from Europeana and
write articles you can win a travel check with 300 euros (which for
example could help cover part of your costs for participating at
Wikimania or some other nice trip)! Read more about the Europeana Challenge here.
As far as I know this is the largest number of parallel
edit-a-thons ever! So don't miss out now when we are writing history!
*pun intended*
Kind regards,
John

Hi all!****
** **
We will be having our second GLAMout—a monthly live Google Hangout on Air
session to discuss developments in GLAM-Wiki which is also recorded—this
Friday, June 7, 3–4 p.m. EDT (12–1 p.m. PDT; 7–8 UTC). Please mark it on
your calendars and try to join live or contribute. The GLAMout is a chance
to share important news or progress on GLAM-Wiki projects. I have created a
new section for June at <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/GLAMout>.
Sara Snyder and I have volunteered to talk about the new project getting
started at the Smithsonian Institution this summer, but we need more
contributors. Please sign up if you can speak on a topic.
If you missed the first GLAMout, you can get an idea of what it's like by
watching the archived video here: <

Thanks!
Dominic
