[Wikimedia-l] National Museum of Korea releases images of artifacts and old books.

[RYU Cheol]

Thank you for your attention, Asaf.

I am contacting them for better release but they seem very busy for the
release. From the conversation with them, I think they need some help from
some experts from GLAM-WIKI fellows of Wikimedia movement for continuing
the opening and long term success. I found the release lacks some important
meta data in my thought, for example the location of the heritage, and they
do not understand Dublin Core and its extension for the museums. Korean
Wikimedians will start to draft our opinion for better sharing. I hope we
could borrow some wisdom who have the experience to lead a successful
museum information releasing.
