Aloha,
Is anyone from GLAM working with the Art Institute of Chicagohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_Institute_of_Chicago?
I live in Hawaii, so it is a little difficult for me to have a relationship with them, although I have a son going to the School of the Art Institute of Chicagohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/School_of_the_Art_Institute_of_Chicago.
Similarly, is anyone working with the Barnes Foundationhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnes_Foundation?
Thanks, Peacerayhttps://toolserver.org/~tparis/pcount/index.php?name=Peaceray&lang=en&wiki=wikipedia / Ray Leonard -- rleonard@hpu.edumailto:rleonard@hpu.edu
Hi Ray,
I have a friend and colleague at the Art Institute of Chicago who is part of the digital team and has expressed interest in a Wikipedian in Residence or some other GLAM project in the next year. If you want further details you can check with me off-list. There's not much to report out publicly.
In regards to the Barnes Foundation, I don't believe we have any sort of formal contact with them, but we do have active GLAM-Wikimedians in the Philadelphia area, as well as a number of other GLAMs who have begun or who have expressed interest in partnerships (the Philadelphia Museum of Art, most notably.) Peter Ekman and Jake (Ocaasi).
Thanks! Lori

...I'll add to that that I have contacts with the library and archives at both the Art Institute and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. I know if there was a Wikipedia collaboration opportunity with the larger organization the library & archive would love to be part of the discussions from the outset.
In Philadelphia, there is a great organization called PACSCL - the Philadelphia Area Consortium of Special Collections Libraries. They are a fantastic group and have done some really amazing collaborative work together. They have worked through a number of projects to collectively identify their highest value collections (from a research perspective) and are now working to put a spotlight on those collections through cataloging and digitization. As an organization, they would be very well positioned to work with a local group of Wikipedians. I'd be delighted to put you in touch with a few people there, especially if I knew a little more about your interests. The library at the Philadelphia Museum of Art is part of that group, as is the Barnes (I have no special contacts at the Barnes). Shoot me a line off list if you'd like me to follow up.
Best,
Merrilee

Lori & Merrilee,
Thank you much for responding.
In particular, with respect to the Art Institute of Chicago (AIC), they have some works in their collection by Ray Yoshida. He taught at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) & was originally from Hawaii. In fact, my son received a Ray Yoshida scholarshiphttp://www.hawaiicommunityfoundation.org/search/node/?keys=Ray+Yoshida to study at SAIC.
I learned that AIC has some Ray Yoshida works donated by the Kohler Foundation. I checked with the Kholer Foundation & found that they had also given the copyrights to AIC.
I would like to get some representation of these works into Wikimedia Commons, so that we can have some images on the enhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Yoshida & nlhttps://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Yoshida Wikipedia articles about Ray Yoshida. I thus was hoping that I could work with someone from GLAM who already had a relationship with AIC who could assist me with this.
I visited the Barnes Foundation last summer & was overwhelmed by their collection. So, Merrilee, if you could put me in touch with PACSCL, that would be great. I am a part-time reference librarian at Hawaii Pacific University, so that would be a good fit.
Merrilee, I see that you are with OCLC research. I wanted to let you know that most of my work with Wikipedia is with citations, & I use Wordcat.org & the |OCLC= citation parameter extensively.
Lori & Merrilee, please contact me off-list. I just wanted to say Mahalo!https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahalo_%28word%29 in this public forum.
Yours, Peacerayhttps://toolserver.org/~tparis/pcount/index.php?name=Peaceray&lang=en&wiki=wikipedia / Ray Leonard -- rleonard@hpu.edumailto:rleonard@hpu.edu
