Copyright and Open Licenses - Working group Digital Cultural Heritage - ICOM Italia

24 May '20

Dear all, I forward this e-mail from ICOM Italia. Sarah, who works for ICOM Italia, is forming a group in order to create an handbook for GLAMs about open licenses. If someone would like to join I think it would be wounderful and really useful for the project! Cheers Marta Arosio Wikimedia Italia -------- Messaggio originale -------- Oggetto: Copyright and Open Licenses - Working group Digital Cultural Heritage - ICOM Italia Data: 2020-05-11 11:14 Mittente: Sarah orlandi <Sarahdominique.orlandi(a)fastwebnet.it> Destinatario: Marta Arosio <marta.arosio(a)wikimedia.it> Dear all, I hope this email finds you well. The Digital Cultural Heritage research group of ICOM Italy has been invited by the board of directors to study the themes of Copyright and Open Licenses on the web related to the reproduction of cultural heritage for publication on the Internet. The first step will be the creation of a FAQ document, easy to understand and ready to use, for Museums, Libraries and Archives. We will try to identify and answer the questions that many cultural heritage professionals are faced with almost daily. The working group, composed by Sarah Dominique Orlandi (coordinator), Anna Maria Marras, Deborah De Angelis, Pierfrancesco Fasano, Cristina Manasse and Mirco Modolo, is drawing up the first list of questions divided in macro-areas. We will also set up a second group of selected stakeholders, which will play a fundamental role in conducting critical analyses and supporting the working group. This stakeholder group will provide suggestions on relevant topics and research methodology as well as verify the questions and validate the first draft of the document. We believe that you can be part of this stakeholder group. This only requires a small commitment, nonetheless fundamental to improve the drafting of the document and to make sure that all issues of interest are adequately addressed. If you should you be interested in participating, in two weeks we will send you the list of questions, organized by themes, to gather your suggestions and comments related to your areas of competence or interest. In the hope of a positive response, I will be waiting for your kind reply. Sincerely.

our community call tomorrow - April 9
by scann 08 Apr '20

08 Apr '20

Hello folks! We know these are challenging times for everyone, and especially for the cultural sector. Several people are getting laid off or dramatically having to change their roles, scope of work, or methodologies. Institutions are dealing with a lot of uncertainty and very dramatic budget reductions. There's also an unnecessary pressure for "being productive" in times were folks might be struggling with isolation or illness -- all in all, a very challenging scenario. So we acknowledge these are hard times to think about the future and the opportunities for openness in the cultural sector, but we still want to touch base and see how everyone is doing and provide some updates of where we are with the Open GLAM Declaration. That's why we are keeping our community call for Thursday April 9 (tomorrow), at 10 AM EST - 3 PM CET - 11 AM UTC-3 on Uberconference: https://www.uberconference.com/openglam We'll be sharing some updates about the current status of the Declaration, check in with people, and also comment on some activities & methodologies we're planning for keeping people engaged with the conversation during these times. See you tomorrow! scann

research for the Open GLAM Declaration
by scann 12 Mar '20

12 Mar '20

Hi folks! As part of the process of building the Open GLAM Declaration, we're releasing some research we have been doing lately. You can access it here: https://medium.com/open-glam/research-papers-for-open-glam-informing-the-de… We also have put together this form: https://forms.gle/kfDxoYSv71Hp67T3A so you can submit the resources that you find inspiring. These might include: articles that have made you rethink the way you manage traditional knowledge; videos that help you formulate arguments to convince your institution to adopt Open Access policies; talks that raise awareness about releasing collections portraying people; or papers that help you build a case inside your institution of the value added to interoperable collections. It can even be slideshows! If you have more than one resource and you would like to share these directly, please just send us an email at info [at] openglam.org We especially welcome resources in languages other than English! We expect to have the Declaration prepared in at least five other languages, so any supporting documents in other languages to help make the case would be very beneficial. Thanks everyone!

11 Mar '20

Hello folks, Just a reminder that tomorrow (Thursday 12) we'll have our community call at Uberconference: https://www.uberconference.com/openglam The call with happen at 10 AM EST, 2 PM UTC, 3 PM CET. If you're in another part of the world please make sure to check at what time is going to happen in your part of the world :) Here's the agenda: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1y-ooRioOKMgLJo5s9IB-kDmmq5ZXUsiAPGRBzMM… As some of you might know, due to the ongoing concerns around COVID19 the Creative Commons Summit was cancelled and we expect that other events will get cancelled this year. So we're trying to figure out how we're going to roll out the community consultations for the Open GLAM Declaration - which means we'll have some extra money for more regional, city-level events and other ways of engagement. Please participate in the call or let us know if you have any thoughts / ideas / suggestions on how to run more virtual meetings and ways of engagement! cheers, scann

Effie Kapsalis, Senior Digital Program Officer, Smithsonian 2020 James Smithson Fellowship Theme for 2020: Open Access The Smithsonian Institution is a trusted knowledge organization with 155 million objects reflecting culture, history, art, and science of the world. While the Smithsonian has an active scholarly and research staff, there are many discoveries and insights left to be made. The goal of the 2020 James Smithson Fellowship is to help the Smithsonian in fulfilling its “diffusion” mission with 21st century technology, to engage the world in creating new knowledge.

The program is designed for a new generation of leaders, who seek an experience that leverages both scholarly and practical expertise in an environment of innovation like no other. The goals of the James Smithson Fellowship Program provide fellows with the opportunity to: - Conduct scholarly research at the Smithsonian - Strengthen understanding of the interplay between research and public policy - Gain skills at leveraging research to inform conversations about public policy The 2020 James Smithson Fellowship Application is now OPEN *Application Deadline: *Extended!

our open glam call on Thursday + some announcements
by scann 11 Feb '20

11 Feb '20

Hello folks! First, we wanted to apologize for cancelling last month call -- both January and scheduling made it challenging. This is a reminder that our next call will take place on February 13th, Thursday, at 10 AM ET, 4 PM CET, 3 PM UTC. Make sure to check your time zone to attend! The call will take place in: http://uberconference.com/openglam. We will be providing some updates on the current status of the Declaration and a revised timeline. Our expectation was to launch the Declaration for the Creative Commons Global Summit, but different challenges made it hard to meet that deadline, especially considering that we want the document to be circulated with time among several communities of practice. Also, remember that the application for the Creative Commons Global Summit is due soon! Original deadline was 12th February but deadline has been extended to 19th February. There’s an Open GLAM track, and we’re expecting to receive many proposals from this group! This year there's an invitation to submit proposals that address the topics and issues outlined in the tracks below with a focus on actionable insights and outcomes, from case studies to workshops and storytelling sessions. The Open GLAM track invites proposals that address the following: Open Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums – Improving and expanding open access to cultural heritage GLAM institutions are a core part of how we understand heritage and creativity. Open licensing is a key part to make cultural data and content available in an equitable and accessible way. This track explores Open GLAM today and discusses how communities active within the open movement can inspire and inform mindful, high-quality, and sustainable open access to cultural heritage. The Summit will take place 14-16 May 2020, in Lisbon, Portugal. More information here: https://summit.creativecommons.org/ And another announcement: Open Knowledge Foundation has officially closed the open-glam(a)lists.okfn.org mailing list, so if you send an email there it won't work. We have the archives for the old mailing list. See you on our Thursday call!
