Perhaps it might be a good idea to connect different local Wikimedian
efforts through an informal sister cities / regions program...
Think of it:
Cascadia and New England!
Minnesota and Colorado!
LA and Atlanta!

Hi all!****
** **
We will be hosting our next edition of the GLAMout tomorrow (or today,
depending on your time zone!), July 12, starting at 3 p.m. EDT (12 p.m. PDT
/ 07:00 UTC). GLAMout is an opportunity to share news and information with
one another, and hear what is going on in GLAM-Wiki. This month, we will be
hearing about the Chemical Heritage Foundation's new Wikipedian in
Residence and latest editathon, the Smithsonian Institution Archives'
editathon, and the GLAM-Wiki US Consortium's new Wikimedia affiliate status.
We are still looking for more participants! If you have your own GLAM-Wiki
news to share, or would simply like to be part of the on-air conversation,
please sign up at:**

And you can also watch the broadcast live on YouTube, and send in
questions/comments to the participants using the #glamwiki hashtag. We will
be tweeting the link to the live video on that hashtag from @glamwiki
shortly before the broadcast, so please follow along!

Fellow Wiki-Americans,
We have been offered potential space for about 200 participants for a
three-day WikiConference USA event at NYU's ITP program for March 21-23,
2014.
Let us know your thoughts on this option.
