Improving Digital Literacy for GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums)

Project Description

Wiki-Wednesdays are free online monthly learning sessions designed to help GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums) professionals understand how art galleries and museums can use linked open data (LOD) to raise awareness of their organizations and artists.

Funded by the Wikimedia Foundation, and the Canada Council for the Arts these sessions are brought to you by Victoria Stasiuk and Associates and Navino Evans from Histropedia.

Please consult this link for GLAM resources including registration to webinars, an online Tool kit, past presentations and data visualizations/knowledge graph case studies.

Reflection on the project

We have now written grants for the webinars we have offered for the last two years. It would be better to write more longer-term grants so that we could spend less time on administration, and more time actually improving the discoverability for Canadian Visual Artists.

For questions on this project, please contact Victoria Stasiuk, Project Manager at vs@victoriastasiuk.ca
