What is a (digital) GLAM Lab?
Space in a GLAM to experiment and innovate online or
onsite with digitised and / or born digital collections and data

@BL_Labs @BL_DigiSchol @GLAM_labs #bldigital
Excerpt adapted from ‘Open a GLAM Lab’ page 34
…there are digital maps, photographs and manuscripts, 3D virtual
objects of Egyptian heads and vases, digitised books from the 17th
century with pictures of strange animals next to the originals, sound
recordings of machines and violin music, old TV programmes, millions
of pages of text from newspapers, video games from the 1980s,
websites which no longer exist, and computer programs which worked
on machines that no one makes any more. There are people coming
in and out; to chat, to tinker, to transform, and to share.
Inside a GLAM Lab…
