As a chapter we have run the Wikimedian in Residence (WIR) programme since May 2012, when Andrew Gray started his residency at the British Library.
You've missed out a couple of years of history there - British Museum, Derby, ARKive...
It's worth noting that the British Library WIR programme was set up and negotiated by myself as a volunteer. It took no Chapter or WMF funding, hardly any staff support, and to date had the highest remuneration package all WIR projects that I am aware of, globally.
