This document discusses how libraries, archives, and museums (LAMs) have engaged with Wikipedia and Wikidata. It lists examples of different collaboration methods between LAMs and Wikipedia/Wikidata, such as having a Wikipedian-in-Residence, holding edit-a-thon events to improve articles, crowdsourcing content from collections, and using Wikidata for digital preservation. It also discusses potential reasons why a LAM would engage with Wikipedia/Wikidata, such as to improve articles by adding verifiable information, increase traffic to their own websites, and use Wikipedia as an instructional tool for their collections.

Blind Spots and Broken Links: Access to Government InformationJames Jacobs
Panel presentation given by James R. Jacobs as part of a program at American Library Association's 2015 annual conference set up by the Federal & Armed Forces Libraries Round Table (FAFLRT). The program, "Open Government: Current Trends and Practices Concerning FOIA, Open Access, and Other Post-Wiki-Leaks Issues" also featured Anneliese Taylor, Assistant Director of Scholarly Communications & Collections at UCSF, who gave an in-depth and very interesting presentation on open access and the OSTP directive on "Expanding Public Access to the Results of Federally Funded Research"
Open Context and Publishing to the Web of Data: Eric Kansa's LAWDI Presentationekansa
This presentation discusses how a model of “data sharing as publishing” can contribute to developing Linked Open Data resources in archaeology and the study of the ancient world. The paper gives examples from Open Context’s developing approach to data editing, documentation and quality improvement processes. The goal of these efforts is to better align the professional interests of individual researchers with the needs of the larger community to access and use high-quality data in Linked Data scenarios.

Digital Humanities at Small Liberal Arts Colleges
Digital methodologies and new media are changing the landscape of research and teaching in the humanities. Scholars can now computationally analyze entire corpora of texts or preserve and share materials through digital archives. Students can engage in authentic applied research linking literary texts to place or study Shakespeare in a virtual Globe Theater. Such developments collectively fall under the name “digital humanities,” which includes the humanities and humanistic social sciences and has largely been characterized by computing-intensive, collaborative, interdisciplinary projects at research institutions. Faculty, staff and students at small liberal arts colleges, however, are making significant contributions to the digital humanities, especially by engaging undergraduates both in and out of the classroom. Rebecca Frost Davis, Program Officer for the Humanities at the National Institute for Technology in Liberal Education (NITLE), will introduce the digital humanities landscape and share examples from small liberal arts colleges.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Classification and Metadata Creation for Stolen, Lost, and Repatriated Objects
Drew Facklam, Dana Kautto, Kristen Tivey, and Amelia Bathke
Ownership: Concepts and History
Laws, Treaties and Conventions:
1863 (Federal Law 100), 1907 (Hague Convention), 1970
(UNESCO Convention), 1990 (NAGPRA)
Examples: Elgin Marbles, Kennewick Man
Creating Digital Files for Repatriation
More museums and art museums rely on creating digital files
for their repatriation projects and there are several different
methods that museums use:
● Creating a digital file so the group of people can
recreate their own copy of an artifact
● Offering the people's access to a virtual tour of the
museum in which their artifacts are for education
● Taking 3D scans and creating a replica so the original
can be preserved or given back

Linked Open Data: Issues of Ownership
Art museums are increasingly using LOD to provide linked
access to their collections. What effects could this have for
issues of ownership?
● Collection metadata can be owned by all
● This shared ownership may be unwanted in cases of
unjustly owned/displayed art
● A wider audience can better scrutinize issues of art
documentation and ownership
● Linking between institutions introduces much-needed
conversations regarding complex relationships,
including questions of ownership
Figure 4. An example of LOD in art museums is American Art
Collaborative founded in 2015.
Ethically Organizing Knowledge
Things to keep in mind in order to responsibly name, catalog,
and classify disputed cultural objects:
● Language, assumptions, “best” practices: all up for
decolonization
● There is no one, true context—artifacts can have
layered histories and meanings
● Subject Headings and Vocabularies were set by biased
humans, often long ago
● Awareness & understanding are important,
collaboration and action are more impactful
An example of a collaborative archive by U.S. institutions &
indigenous peoples: Plateau Peoples’ Web Portal at http://
plateauportal.libraries.wsu.edu
Cataloging Cultural Objects (CCO)
● Used by an overwhelming number of institutions while
creating internal standards
● Interoperable
● Huge variety in what kind of objects a record can
identify
● Consistently uses authority control

3. Dance Cataloguing and Notation
NYPL Dance Division: Library of Congress:
Reference:
Dance Notation:
• Early dance notation was show as with
the vertical line to symbolize the spine.
This sometimes ran alongside the music
to go along with the notes in the score.
• In 1928 Rudolf Von Laban published
Schrifttanz, a dance script, that has
become known as Labanotation (see
diagram below)

The Dictionary Catalog of
the Dance Collection:
• I n 1 9 6 4 , N Y P L w a s
designated its own division
called: Dance Division
• In 1965 librarians Dorothy
Lourdou & G. Oswald created
a cataloging system for their
collection.
• Created in 1974.
• Originally started with 8,000
subject headings.
• Eventually grew to 45,000
entries in their authority list.
And filled 10 volumes.
Dance And RDA:
• Rule 25.5B deals with dance
in two parts. The first
addressing qualifiers to a
heading. The second how to
address a uniform language.
• In November2014 RDA

the idea that choreographed
work falls under authorship

Sir Tim Berners-Lee’s
4 Main Principles
1: Name the resource (via URI)
2: Use HTTP URI’s to enable
discovery
3: Provide useful information using
standards (like RDF)
4: Include links to other URI’s so that
people can discover related things
Data should be universally identifiable, openly
available, and relational.
All LOD lives on the Semantic Web. It was originally
envisioned by Tim Berners-Lee, the same inventor as
the World Wide Web.
RDF triples are the common
standard used to create LOD.
