"Being a More Visible Support for LGBTQ* Communities – What Some Canadian Libraries are Doing to Promote LGBTQ* Services, Inclusivity, and Community Engagement" is Part 2 of "Nowhere to Turn, Nowhere to Go," representing a greatly expanded update from the previous version.
Part 1 is a separate SlideShare file entitled "Library Service and Collection Policies and Strategies for Supporting LGBTQ* Communities."
The core conviction is the same as for Part 1: Librarians are catalysts for social change and personal transformation.
Part 2 shows in vibrant visual images what some Canadian libraries -- post-secondary and public -- are doing to support and promote LGBTQ* services.
It also challenges viewers who are library service providers -- and at the same time it informs viewers who are library service users -- to address the question of: If there aren’t any now, how could you create LGBTQ* inclusive programs and services at your library?
Suggestions for promotion and advocacy to support LGBTQ* communities are addressed, but they are just suggestions. Visuals and narratives in this presentation show what 15 Canadian libraries in these two sectors are doing to support LGTBQ* populations, from specialized collections and reading lists to Pride parade engagement to the creation of public library GSAs to myriad events, workshops, guest speakers, special celebrations, collaborations and partnerships, and library volunteer staff groups.

Bringing maker culture to cultural organisationsMia
My keynote on 'Bringing maker culture to cultural organisations' for VALA2014 More background at http://openobjects.blogspot.com/2014/02/bringing-maker-culture-to-cultural.html and http://www.vala.org.au/conf2014
Abstract: Should museums, libraries and archives be places for looking at old stuff other people have made, or could they also be places where new creations are inspired and made? If making - writing, designing, building - is the deepest level of engagement with heritage and culture, how can memory institutions avoid the comforting but deadly trap of broadcasting at the public and instead create spaces for curating, creating or conversing with them?

Art of GLAM-wiki:The Basics of Sharing Cultural Knowledge on WikipediaSara Snyder
A hands-on workshop instructing library, archives, and museum professionals on how they can contribute to Wikipedia. Presented at ARLIS 2013 on April 26, 2013.
This presentation is from the talk I gave at the Museum Computer Network 2014 in Dallas, TX. Here is the description:
An editathon is an ideal first step in beginning a collaboration between your museum and Wikipedians. Starting small with an editathon can open up a whole world of opportunities to co-create knowledge about collections with your community. This presentation is your chance to hear about organizing and leading Wikipedia editathons, with the hope that you will leave with the practical skills necessary to host such an event. The talk will sketch a typical editathon and answer beginners' questions such as "What is it? (and what is it not?)" and "Why we do it?" Examples, especially from successful Smithsonian editathons, will support a step-by-step guide to planning and executing an editathon.

Children's songs are universal. They are part of our cultural heritage. As you might know, there are a melodies that are sung in different languages. Sometimes with the same meaning, but sometimes they have total different lyrics and meaning. They illustrate how we are globally connected to each other. In a time where copyright dominates the music industry, we think it is important that the knowledge about songs like these is accessible. Not only the lyrics and their meaning, but also what they sound like. The wikis are a great place to collect this knowledge, just like the way these songs are taught to children around the world.
This presentation was used for a music scoring workshop. This workshop was an assignment for the Training for Trainers program at Wikimedia UK in August 2014.
Open Monuments Project at GLAM Wiki Conference 2015Aleksandra Janus
How GLAM WIKI could be helpful or inspirational for social projects or change is more commons questions than what is there still missed. In order to reconsider idea for GLAM WIKI and make some improvements we would like to take a closer look at situations where and how GLAM WIKI has some limitations. When it could not be a good solution and why?
Why didn’t we decided to base our project on Wikipedia? How are the other examples of such projects? Is it only the example of monuments? What should be done in order to make Wikipedia more universal way of opening GLAM?

Transforming museums with technology - Transforming a city from inside a museumRoger Bamkin
The TEDx talk on 8th September at Bristol M Shed. Daringly we spoke about the M Shed's on-line presense. They have spent millions transforming the museum from its former name of the Bristol Industrial Museum. Sadly on Wikipedia their former reincarnation looks like a better museum that they are now. How can you transform a museum? Why would you want to? Is it possible to change the on-line profile of your museum. We talk here about the work that Wikimedia UK have done with Derby Museum. As a result they have 1200 articles on their museum and are probable seen as one the UKs top museums on many wikipedias.
Wikimedia Commons Social History Photo InitiativeDavid Milne
This is a two-part presentation made at the Museum & Gallery Services (Queensland) Networking event in December 2009. The first part outlines the rationale for the Queensland Museum contributing a small selection of high quality, copyright free social history photographs to Wikimedia as a first step towards developing a digitisation strategy. This is the first contribution made to Wikimedia by any Australian cultural heritage organisation with many mutual benefits arising. The second part demonstrates the use of NING as a social media platform for museum professionals to engage with and to share ideas.
Stories to tell: The making of our digital nation. April 2010 Rose Holley
A new type of digital volunteer is quietly adding to the sum of knowledge of our history and heritage on the web. Ordinary Australians have helped correct millions of lines of text in the National Library of Australia's Newspaper Digitisation Program. They have contributed thousands of photographs to the national digital picture collection. The presentation describes these projects and others from libraries and archives that you can help with. Everyone can help to improve, describe and create our digital heritage.

Increasing reach and access through WikimediaCILIP
Lucy Crompton-Reid's (Chief Executive, WikiMedia UK) presentation to the CILIP 2017 Conference #CILIPConf17
Wikimedia UK is the national charity for the global Wikimedia movement, and our vision is of a more tolerant, informed and democratic society through the shared creation of, and access to, open knowledge. This presentation will draw on Wikimedia UK’s current work with libraries across the UK – including Bodleian, National Library of Scotland, National Library of Wales, Senate House and Wellcome – to highlight ways in which libraries can increase engagement with their collections through the Wikimedia projects, including Wikipedia. The case studies shared will focus on partnerships that address issues of diversity and equality, particularly gender, linguistic and geographic bias on Wikimedia and in library collections.

[NOTES] Organizing the World's Museum Social Media ManagersLori Byrd-McDevitt
NOTES for a presentation given by Lori Phillips and Ryan Dodge at Museum Computer Network in Dallas, 2014. The presentation highlights the collaboration and camaraderie that came out of the International Museum Social Media Managers Facebook group, and is offers a rationale for the value of collaborating more openly on a pan-institutional scale.
A panel at the Museum Computer Network conference in Dallas, TX, November 2014. The panelists consider how museums embracing change in relationships with their communities have led to transformations and an evolution of authoritative structures within institutions and the museum community as a whole.
The 90-minute, multi-presenter panel includes leading thinkers who will share their perspectives on this continuously developing model for museum authority. Lori Byrd Phillips opens the panel with a brief background on the genesis of the term Open Authority. Jeffrey Inscho will explore how open authority and co-creative projects have evolved at the Carnegie Museum of Art since the museum first began experimenting with the concepts in 2012. Elizabeth Bollwerk will explore evaluation of Open Authority projects. Porchia Moore will explore the rich possibilities of Open Authority in generating new visitors to the museum--especially those visitors of color who are traditionally underrepresented in these institutions. A forthcoming video link will include the resulting discussion, led by Koven Smith, as a means to instigate deeper dialogue around the presented ideas.

Presentation: http://slidesha.re/T3hFS8
By now you no longer need convincing. Wikipedia is not only a ubiquitous reference platform for our users, but is also home to a thriving, global volunteer community that is eager to distribute the deeper expertise residing in museums. So now what? As a group of Wikipedians who help museums share content, GLAM-Wiki has made great strides in formalizing over the past few years. But how do museum technologists better connect and interface with this resource? How can we work together to more efficiently share our media, research, and expertise?
This presentation shares the current progress of the GLAM-Wiki infrastructure, offering insights into how museums can best connect with the Wikipedia community in order to share cultural resources on the globally accessible platform. The future of GLAM-Wiki will be considered, including a proposed model that will allow museums to support one another in Wikipedia-focused endeavors.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

An overview of past, current, and future Wikipedians in Residence.
Àlex Hinojo is a museum consultantfrom Barcelona.Member of the #glamwikiinitiative, an internationalgroup of Wikipedianswhoassist cultural institutions in collaboratingwith Wikipedia in order to share multimedia content and cultural expertise.He works to increase and improve the relationshipsbetween the cultural sector and the free knowledge community, looking for new ways to engagewith cultural heritage and sharing culture.
“Joan Miró, The ladder of escape” was the firstblockbuster exhibit in the world to includeQrpedia codes.Curatorschose17 representativeartworksfrom the exhibit and the Wikimediansdeveloped the related Wikipedia entries Barcelona is a bilingual city (Catalan-Spanish) and also a touristic city (English) so at leastweneededarticles to be in 3 languages. More than 200.000 peopleattended the exhibit in 5 months, withnearly12.000 Qrpedia scans Content wasalso available online, and duringthese 5 months had more than 1,2 Million visits4 months before the exhibit weprepared a workinggroupincluding museum professionalsfrom the Fundació Miró, a group of Wikipedians, some art historians and a group of teachers of an art school. 1 monthbefore the exhibit wedid an edit-a-thon at the museum'slibrary to fixsomedetails, to improvequality and to “humanize” and socialize and online project We haveloads of Nationalpresscoverage ...And thenwehad lunch alltogetherCommunityimproved the articles in their own language (Catalan) As communityisbilingual, wetranslated to Spanish and also to English We asked English Wikipedians for a proofread Once done weasked French, Italians, Germans...NicesupriseswithRussianpeople and....Persian! The systemcreatesstatsthan can allow museum professionals to createmapswith the “hotpoints” of the exhibits and detect “language needs”. Example: We didn'thaveKorean but load of Koreanvisitors.Nationalpresscoveredit a lot. We hadloads of PR because museum PR groupbelievedon the projectfrom the beginning Miró Foundation has improved the relationshipswith the community of Wikipedians but alsowithsomeUniversityteachers and local art historians.
You can see from all of these great examples that the concept of the Wikipedian in Residence, and the GLAM-Wiki project as a whole, has come a long way in the past two years.When interest in the WiR model exploded last year, the Center for the Future of Museums questioned if this was a trend or a fad. I don’t think I’ve ever been at once so excited and so frustrated by a tweet! I was pretty determined to prove that we were sticking around…
And wouldn’t you know it? Less than a year later, the Wikipedian in Residence model was included in the inaugural Center for the Future of Museums TrendsWatch report. Not a fad. A trend. And I guess it also says something that we’re sitting here today, too.
But now how do you get in on this trend? As US Cultural Partnerships Coordinator, that’s exactly what I’m trying to make easier for you. Our goal is to establish a more efficient system for you to find the resources you need to get started with your own Wikimedia project.You’ve heard about the types of events and projects we’ve been modeling over the past years.You should first consider what sort of project is right for your institution and it’s resources.As Liam said, each institution is different, and has very different resources to offer. So each GLAM-Wiki project will look a bit different as well.
We have centralized all of our documentation on our global GLAM-Wiki webpage, glamwiki.orgThere you can review our best practices, types of events, and case studiesFrom all different types of projects from all over the world. Some include Wikipedians in Residence, some do not.This screenshot shows the case studies landing page for The Children’s Museum, which includes specific case studies on our image donation, MAPs project that Sarah mentioned, our Featured Article collaboration, staff outreach, and our implementation of QRpedia.Sarah has also done a lot of documentation for her many Smithsonian projects, and she has her own landing page like this one.
Whether or not you choose to bring on a Wikipedian in Residence, it’s important that you connect with the GLAM-Wiki community.By doing so, you’ll have the entire GLAM-Wiki community at your back. While there have been about a dozen Wikipedians in Residence, there are hundreds of volunteers involved in GLAM-Wiki more broadly. They have specific skills ranging from copyright and image donations, to mass metadata uploads, to events coordination, training, education and outreach.As a group, we help advocate for your institution and make sure that you don’t get stuck as you navigate Wikipedia. We also can help with the crowdsourcing aspects of certain projects. As Liam mentioned, Wikipedia can be your E-Volunteer program. GLAM-Wiki can connect you with a global community of volunteers who want to share knowledge, just like you.
The GLAM-Wiki community is also a great way to build and diversify your institution’s “tribe.” We LOVE to brag about the great GLAM-Wiki projects going on around the world in our social media, on our list-servs, newsletters, and in our trainings and conference presentations.You can receive great word of mouth, on a global scale.By showing good faith in wanting to partner with Wikimedia, you’re gaining serious popularity points within a huge new, virtual user base, who will not only help you with your project, but will also become intimately aware of the great resources you have to offer.
In the past months, the US GLAM-Wiki community has worked together to create an easy to use GLAM-Wiki US portal to help you get connected and get started with a project. The URL is US.GLAMWIKI.ORG.This space will link you out to the case studies that are compiled on the global glamwiki page, but it is also unique in its method to connect you with an individual Wikimedian as you begin your project.
The GLAM/US/Connect page has a number of lists of individuals who can assist you. We suggest that you create a personal username (there are instructions for how to do this) and post a note on the talk page of a Wikipedian who is listed here. Depending on the type of project you want to pursue, you can get in touch with either an Outreach Volunteer or just an Online Volunteer. There is also a list of cultural professionals who have already carried out partnerships and are willing to answer questions.
One of the best ways to connect with a specific Wikipedian is through our new State Connect pages. This is the example for Indiana. Each one has local contacts, associated WikiProjects made up of Wikipedians who are interested in your state or region, links to your local Campus Ambassadors (college students who are trained in Wikipedia outreach).It also includes current or past GLAM partnerships and any press for these projects.
Throughout this process, you’ll also be wanting to spread the word about your ideas for working with Wikipedia with your staff. We know that this isn’t always easy. The GLAM: US Portal offers a GLAM Bookshelf that lists powerpoints, handouts, and project plans that we have created. You can use and distribute any of them freely. Included on the Bookshelf is the GLAM One-Pager, the handout that was included in our session download. This is a great overview to help you get started with sharing about GLAM-Wiki.
Here is all of the information to learn more and to get connected. And I know from here on we’d like to hear questions from you.
