From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

GLAM Wiki-Partners

Introduction

The GLAM Wiki-Partners are professionals from GLAM institutions taking part in regular meetings to share insights, best practices, and collaborate in the Wikis on the future of cultural heritage.


Purpose

This initiative aims to foster cross-institutional dialogue, allowing GLAM professionals to exchange ideas, overcome common challenges, and co-develop innovative strategies for the evolving landscape of cultural heritage.

We meet to:
Network – Meet like-minded professionals from a diverse range of GLAM institutions.
Share Knowledge – Stay updated on the latest trends, tools and solutions the Wikis provide.
Collaborate on Projects – Discuss the realisation of projects and establish contact with professionals to facilitate mutual support.
