Dear GLAMers,
Seems like I haven't written in this list for ages, so am really excited to share some good news: Wikimedia Israel (WMIL) has announced that it will be hosting the 2018 international GLAM-WIKI conference!
Though we are just in the first stages of organizing, it's clear to us that in order to make this a successful event, the conference program should focus on the topics and priorities that are important to the GLAM community, namely -- you! So at this point, you can help us by filling out this short survey and letting us know what you find important and what you'd like to see in such a conference.
There will be a proper sessions submission phase later on, but for now, having a broad understanding of general topics that are of interest to this community is helpful to WMIL, as well as the various charities we have applied to in order to make this conference a reality.
I'm sure you have lots of questions and we'll do our best to answer them and give some more info soon, but for now filling out the survey is the best way forward.
Please feel free to contact me here or privately if you have any other questions.
Cheers,
Shani Evenstein
on behalf of the 2018 GLAM-Wiki Conference organizing team.
