Greetings GLAM wiki community,
I am honored be attending an upcoming UNESCO/GLAMwikihttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/2017_European_GLAMwiki_Coordinators_meeting coordinators meeting on February 16 & 17. I will be representing the U.S. GLAM Wiki Consortium, looking at ways to contribute to Wikidata from my organization, as well as talking about my research on the impact of open GLAMhttps://siarchives.si.edu/sites/default/files/pdfs/2016_03_10_OpenCollections_Public.pdf.
If you work at a U.S. GLAM organization that works with Wikipedia/Wikimedia, I ask that you kindly respond to a 7 question surveyhttps://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Y5NJRB7 to help me understand the challenges and benefits that U.S. organizations face in collaborating with Wikipedia/Wikimedia. Please submit your answers by Friday, February 10th as my presentation is February 16th. And please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Best wishes,
Effie Kapsalis, Chief of Content & Communications Smithsonian Institution Archives
