This document provides an overview of OpenGLAM (Open Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums) and discusses opportunities for cultural heritage institutions to make their collections more open and accessible online. It highlights principles like releasing metadata and public domain works without restrictions, applying open licenses to copyrighted content, and making collections available through open platforms. The document also presents results of a survey on open data and crowdsourcing adoption among heritage institutions in different countries which found libraries and some museums have adopted these practices more than archives. It concludes by offering suggestions for how institutions can get started with OpenGLAM and engage in further discussion.
This document summarizes the results of a pilot survey of Swiss GLAM institutions regarding their stance on open data, crowdsourcing, and linked open data. The survey found that while a critical mass of institutions have adopted digitization and data sharing, there is still progress to be made, especially among lagging institutions. Institutions see benefits like increased visibility and access but also have concerns about additional work and loss of control. The document outlines implications for promoting more open policies and practices in Switzerland, including starting with easier approaches, focusing on non-commercial uses, and running pilot cooperation projects to demonstrate benefits.
This document summarizes the results of a pilot survey of Swiss GLAM institutions regarding their stance on open data, crowdsourcing, and related topics. It finds that while digitization efforts are widespread, open data practices still have room for growth. Most institutions see opportunities in open data for education and research, but also risks around loss of control. The document then discusses implications for promoting the open GLAM movement in Switzerland, including the proposed establishment of an OpenGLAM working group and network.
This document summarizes a study on how heritage institutions have adopted open practices related to the internet. It finds that most institutions have moved beyond trials and are in the early or late majority adoption stages for practices like digitization, linked data, and open data. Country-level factors like an e-participation index influence adoption levels. As institutions progress through stages of adopting innovations, their attitudes shift to be more open and see benefits of greater participation and networking with users.

Some facts and figures about JISC digitisation impactPaolaMarchionni
The content of these slides (or better, the great majority of it) derives from an initial analysis of the results of a survey the JISC Content team circulated among previously funded projects in the areas of digitisation and content. Comments to each slide have been incorporated into the slides, as they are quite extensive. The survey aimed to find out more about how digitised collections were being used and the impact such projects have had on their hosting institutions and more broadly.
The proliferation of communication technologies is profoundly changing the nature of academic practice. In this presentation I describe the impact of blogging and social networking tools on the practice and dissemination of academic research across disciplinary boundaries. I suggest that the traditional notion of the university is giving way to communities of scholars who are not tied to particular institutions, and less dependent on traditional forms of dissemination and publication. The resulting ‘democratisation’ of academia is portrayed in terms of a tension between democracy and expert knowledge mediated by technology.
One prominent contemporary challenge for technologists is to understand the ongoing impact of technological change on academic communities. At The Open University, the Digital Scholarship research team is mapping the use of Twitter in order to better understand user engagement with these technologies. I will present headline findings from this research and discuss the implications for scholarly practice at the OU.

The Hispanic Monarchy during the 17th centurypapefons Fons
The 17th century saw the decline of the Hispanic Monarchy under the rule of indolent monarchs. Though most of the empire was maintained through this century, it came at great cost to the population. Monarchs delegated power to favorites ("validos") who often used their positions corruptly. Major crises occurred during this time, including revolts in Catalonia and Portugal in 1640 that led to Portuguese independence by 1668. The inbreeding of the Habsburg dynasty also took its toll, culminating in the disabled rule of Charles II at the end of the 17th century, leaving the empire vulnerable to the ambitions of Louis XIV of France.

Putting FAIR Principles in the Context of Research Information: FAIRness for ...Anastasija Nikiforova
This presentation is a supplementary material for "Putting FAIR Principles in the Context of Research Information: FAIRness for CRIS and CRIS for FAIRness" (Otmane Azeroual, Joachim Schopfel, Janne Polonen, and Anastasija Nikiforova) paper presented at 14th International Joint Conference on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management (IC3K) conference, and also received the Best Paper Award. In this presentation we raise a discussion on this topic showing that the improvement of FAIRness is a dual or bidirectional process, where CRIS promotes and contributes to the FAIRness of data and infrastructures, and FAIR principles push for further improvement in the underlying CRIS data model and format, positively affecting the sustainability of these systems and underlying artifacts. CRIS are beneficial for FAIR, and FAIR is beneficial for CRIS.

This document summarizes an ongoing research project examining the pedagogical integration of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in African schools. The research involves 115 schools, 9,000 educators, and 240,000 learners across multiple African countries. It aims to understand how ICTs can improve the quality of teaching and learning. The methodology involves collecting data through questionnaires and interviews to analyze the role of ICTs and identify best practices. Preliminary results suggest ICTs have the potential to improve educational outcomes and equalize access to knowledge. The research has strengthened capacity and created an open data source with over 20,000 data points across 12 categories.
The aim of the research was to rise the role and the importance of open governement data vizualisations - its promise, potential, ecosystems, political intermediaries, as well as barriers. Actions suggested to increase the use of data and visualisation include the offering and support not only for data but also it’s processing, statistical analysis and visualisation. It was pointed out that there is furhter research in standardisation for visualisation processes with the aim to provide intermediaries with professional visualization at lower prices is an important aspect.
In this talk I give a brief summary of the goals associated with the RDA/CODATA working group on Summer Schools in Cloud computing that I gave to the ICT4D group at Royal Holloway.

Estermann ENICPA Wiki Loves Performing Arts 20191022Beat Estermann
This document discusses using Wikidata to create an international database for the performing arts. It provides an overview of Wikidata, including its purpose to provide a centralized location for interwiki links, infoboxes, and lists. It outlines a vision to realize a performing arts database on Wikidata to provide a finding aid for related Wikimedia Commons content and promote Wikidata-powered information on Wikipedia language editions. Current statistics on performing arts items in Wikidata are presented, alongside challenges and examples of existing Wikidata and Wikipedia implementations related to the performing arts.
Bootstrapping the International Knowledge Base for the Performing ArtsBeat Estermann
The document discusses bootstrapping an international knowledge base for the performing arts. It outlines key stakeholders like performing arts professionals, presenters, and researchers and possible usage scenarios. The vision is to have many stakeholders share one knowledge base. It describes current challenges and proposes starting by piecing together historical information and aggregating current event data. Guiding principles are to start with larger existing databases and focus on incremental benefits. Potential "low-hanging fruits" are improving access to archive materials, using anniversaries to publish curated data, and exposing performance data to search engines.
Wikidata is a free and open knowledge base that can be edited by anyone. It aims to provide a centralized storage of structured data that can then be used by Wikipedia, other Wikimedia projects, and external applications. The document outlines Wikidata's purpose of being a centralized location for interwiki links, infobox data, and lists. It also describes how Wikidata structures and links data using RDF triples. Cultural heritage institutions are encouraged to contribute their data to Wikidata to create an open global database and help realize the vision of freely accessible human knowledge.
Workshop "Performing Arts Database based on Wikidata"Beat Estermann
Workshop at the occasion of the Congress of the Society of Theatre Research (Gesellschaft für Theaterwissenschaft), Düsseldorf, Germany, 10 November 2018.
Beat Estermann presented on using Wikidata to establish an international database for performing arts. The goals are to make cultural heritage data openly accessible, interconnect collections worldwide through Wikidata, and provide a single source of data for popular websites and apps. Pilot projects ingest repertoire from theaters in Zurich and Flanders to develop the data model. Challenges include organizing relevant material and resolving data quality issues. There are opportunities for synergies between Wikidata, Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, and other platforms to crowdsource maintenance and make performing arts information more visible internationally.

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
RFP for Reno's Community Assistance CenterThis Is Reno
Property appraisals completed in May for downtown Reno’s Community Assistance and Triage Centers (CAC) reveal that repairing the buildings to bring them back into service would cost an estimated $10.1 million—nearly four times the amount previously reported by city staff.

Let’s facilitate the re-use of heritage items
and the information about them
6. Berner Fachhochschule | Haute école spécialisée bernoise | Bern University of Applied Sciences
1. Release digital information about the artefacts (metadata) into
the public domain using an appropriate legal tool such as the
Creative Commons Zero Waiver.
2. Keep digital representations of works for which copyright has
expired (public domain) in the public domain by not adding new
rights to them.
3. When publishing data make an explicit and robust statement of
your wishes and expectations with respect to reuse and repurposing
[…]
4. When publishing data use open file formats which are machine-
readable.
5. Opportunities to engage audiences in novel ways on the web
should be pursued.

Driving and Hindering Factors of Open Content and Crowdsourcing
Driving Factors1 Hindering Factors1
Open Content Improving the visibility of the institution
and its holdings
Making content more easily available for
existing users and attract new users
Facilitating networking among
institutions
Improving interactions with users
Doing a better job at fulfilling the
institution’s core mission
Extra time effort and expenses
(digitization, documentation, rights
clearance)
Feeling of loss of control
Wish to prevent commercial use of
content by third parties without due
compensation
Technical issues and insufficient staff
skills
Crowdsourcing Intention to get access to external
expertise and to have certain tasks
carried out by volunteers
Quest for an improved relationship with
users/visitors (trust, loyalty, public
ownership and responsibility)
Extensive preparation and follow-up
Difficulties to estimate the time scope;
low planning security; continuity of data
maintenance is not guaranteed
1 Factors which are of relevance for more than 50% of responding institutions

«Let’s do it!» – «But how?»
21. Berner Fachhochschule | Haute école spécialisée bernoise | Bern University of Applied Sciences
▶ Put reproductions of «your» public domain works on the Internet in
high resolution formats and mark them as «public domain» works,
so that others can re-use them and build upon them!
▶ In case of doubt regarding the legal situation, consult the Public
Domain FAQ (Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property):
▶ “If a work is in the public domain, it can be used in any way desired – this means
reproduced (copied), edited, distributed, etc. – without permission.”
▶ “The individuality required for copyright protection is commonly lacking for
reproductions which are as true as possible to the original.”
▶ “If a person or institution knows that a work is in the public domain and still
claims copyright to it, this is so-called intentional deception.”
Respect the public domain and
facilitate access to it

Editor's Notes
Is the original work still under copyright?
Is there a copyright on the digital reproduction?
Are the digitization costs covered by the users through a market mechanism?
If the answer is 3 times «no», there is probably no reason to withhold your digital reproductions from those whom they belong to and who have paid for them through their taxes!
