- 1. Open GLAM Workshop Creative Commons Global Summit 15th September 2011
- 2. What is Open GLAM? Galleries Libraries Archives Museums a slogan, a coalition, a working co nso rtium
- 4. 1. Open Content Open digital copies of works which have entered the public domain. 2. Open Data Open data about works, e.g. catalogues or databases of descriptions.
- 5. “A global network of people and organisations who are working to open up content and data held by GLAM institutions.” Open GLAM will "Support principles, tools and resources that enable GLAM institutions to make digital versions of the PD works in their collections, as well as the metadata relating to said works, freely available for public use and re-use"
- 6. Who?
- 7. We want to build a strong coalition between people and organisations who are already doing great work in this area.
- 9. • Quick draft of rough Open GLAM vision statement & principles (need review) • Brainstorm Incentives & Barriers • Brainstorm case studies • Brainstorm next steps...
- 10. The Principles (Draft) • GLAM institutions must be enabled to fulfil their traditional function in the online environment for the sustainability of the access to digitised cultural heritage. • GLAM institutions can engage with the public as partners through participation, collaboration and interaction (abandon the top down control paradigm) and seek opportunities for public to recognising the value of access ... • Digital reproductions of works that are in the Public Domain must also belong to the Public Domain. Use of works in the public domain should not be limited by any means, either legal or technical. (Communia Recommendation #5 targets Glam institutions, no intention to have a viral effect on works incorporating PD pieces) • Digitisation projects that receive public funding must - at the minimum - ensure that all digitised content is publicly available online.
- 11. How?
- 12. Long term goals - identify / conduct concrete research about costs / benefits to GLAM institutions - create Creative Commons course for GLAM - support / develop most relevant licensing terms - consider supporting national GLAM representatives with legal training - encourage people create games / apps to show usefulness of releasing information - support links with newspapers, magazines who will promote work

- 14. EVENTS - Many Open GLAM events already exist.
