13. WHAT?
Open Cultuur Data (Open Culture Data) is a network of
cultural professionals, developers, designers, copyright
specialists and open data experts, that opens data from
the cultural heritage sector and encourages the
development of valuable cultural applications that
started in September 2011. This makes culture
accessible in new ways to a broader public.
The aim of Open Cultuur Data is to anchor the cultural
sector in the international open data movement.
14. HOW? 1/2
Open Cultuur Data supports the cultural heritage sector
in the release of culture data in the following way:
• encourage making more open culture data available
• collecting and disseminating open culture data via an
open digital infrastructure
• collecting and sharing knowledge and experience with
open culture data
• encouraging the making of new applications based on
open culture data
15. HOW? 2/2
Open Cultuur Data achieves this through the following
activities:
• workshops, presentations and publications on open
culture data
• support cultural institutions in opening up their
datasets
• masterclass open data for cultural heritage institutions
• competition with special awards for applications made
with open culture data
17. THE CONCEPT OF THE MASTERCLASS
• Front-runners and alumni teach their colleagues
• Domain experts are involved
• Based on registration (incl. motivation and dataset)
• Small fee
• Reader and other material is openly available
18. THE MASTERCLASS PROGRAMME (FIVE AFTERNOONS AND HOMEWORK)
1. Introduction, getting acquainted and case description
2. Intellectual Property and Open Licenses
3. Technology, reuse and applications
4. Policy, benefits and risks

social media, crowdsourcing
▶ Inspired by an earlier pilot survey,
carried out in Switzerland in 2012
▶ Organized in a federative manner, which
means that the organization depends on
volunteers and partners in each country
What is the OpenGLAM Benchmark Survey about?
29. ▶ Measure the state of advancement of OpenGLAM in the participating
countries
▶ Inform the GLAM community about the latest developments in the area of
OpenGLAM
▶ Identify potential partners for open data and/or crowdsourcing projects
▶ Use the study report as a communication instrument to promote
OpenGLAM
▶ Use the study report as an instrument for lobbying activities in favour of
OpenGLAM and the advancement of free knowledge
▶ Provide international comparisons:
• Allowing each country to see where it stands compared to other countries.
• Provide the international OpenGLAM community with a tool that helps it better
understand the particularities of each country
What do we want to achieve?
