Rose Sherman from the Minnesota Historical Society presented on opportunities for connecting history online. She discussed digitizing collections and making them accessible online through research databases and stories told via websites and podcasts. Sherman also covered engaging users through crowdsourcing content like user-generated stories, videos, comments and mashups. Emerging technologies like location-aware mobile devices and virtual worlds provide new ways to experience history. Collaborative efforts allow users to participate in history through activities like annotating documents and editing wikis.

Open government records important to the history of indigenous communities, families, and individuals are often inaccessible due to distance. The project creates an opensource toolkit layer for Omeka-S for creating access to and collaboration with mass digitized documents by leveraging IIIF and Open Annotation for keyword tagging and other annotation.

Slides and audio from presentation given at the LOUIS Users Group meeting, 4-Oct-2013, Baton Rouge, LA.
Libraries have been digitizing materials for decades as surrogates for access to physical materials, and in doing so have broadened the range of people and uses for library materials. With projects like Hathi Trust and Google Book Search systematically digitizing massproduced monographs and making them available within the bounds of copyright law, libraries continue the trend of digitizing what is local and unique, and the emergence of projects like the Digital Public Library of America and OCLC's WorldCat Digital Collection Gateway expand discoverability of the the local and unique well beyond the library's traditional reach. This presentation provides an overview of this trend, updates on what libraries can do, and describes activities LYRASIS is doing to help libraries and other cultural heritage institutions expand their reach.
PowerPoint Slides from the presentations that were done around the State of Minnesota which feature: the purpose of the grants program, recent legislative changes to the program and the new MHS Grants Portal.

Our world is changing and it can be difficult to process it all. A stimulating library can help make sense of these changes and inspire library users to participate in this era of continuous change. Libraries are enhancing people’s lives through emerging technologies and library programming. Learn how libraries are constructing an environment conducive to information discovery, sharing, and lifelong learning and glimpse the future of what libraries can become.

Lego Beowulf and the Web of Hands and Hearts, for the Danish national museum ...Michael Edson
This talk was delivered at the awards ceremony for the 2012 Bikuben Foundation Danish Museum Prize in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Ideas about what museums are, who they serve, and the role they play in society are changing with dramatic speed, driven largely by social media and the participatory culture of global networks.
Denmark supports world-class museums, with remarkable collections, expert staff, and beautiful architecture. But how can museum leaders balance the traditional concepts of organizational mission and outcomes with the disruptive possibilities being demonstrated by those who love and use museums in new ways?
