Dear all,
Here's
a blog post cum report on India's first GLAM initiative at the National
Crafts Museum! The program started out in English but was taken forward
in Hindi to suit the staff members who have been enthusiastically
creating articles and editing in Hindi Wikipedia! The program has been a
bold step to prove that GLAM can very well happen in India - with its
own design and structure and it has also given the Hindi community a
precious gift of 6 new editors.
A special thanks to User: Roboture who has been with us in each and
every meet and helped train editors, User:Yann for his first set of
invaluable Commons contributions and to User:Aniruddhajnu and
User:Siddharatha_ghai for coming down to the museum to inspire the staff
members.
Hope this gives more courage to any community that wants to start a similar project! Would love to provide any help needed.
Thank you,
Regards
