Call organizer's checklist

[edit]

Organize a call

[edit]

Thank you for your interest in organizing a GLAM call! Regular calls are arranged one of two times (8:00 UTC or 13:30 UTC), once a month, and last 90 minutes. You can submit your request via the contact form.

Join the Telegram group

[edit]

After you request to organize a call, you can join the GLAM call organizers' Telegram group to introduce yourself and discuss the time and topics of your preferred call.

Prepare topics or focus areas

[edit]

As the host you can help select topics or a theme to focus on. There is a database of proposals and requests, or you can add your own.

Prepare a check-in question

[edit]

A check-in question is a light-weight question to ask everyone in the call, by posting their answer in the chat and introducing themselves. It’s also a way for newcomers to feel welcomed and comfortable. It can be something GLAM related (what artist did you discover recently?) or not (what color is your mood today?).
