GLAM/Archivi

Questa è una bozza. Sentiti libero di migliorarla e, se hai domande, dubbi o suggerimenti, per favore usa la pagina di discussione, grazie.

Stato valido al 2014.

Le cose che si possono fare, in realtà, sono quasi sempre le stesse, più o meno complicate, più o meno impegnative:

Sostegno nell'uso di licenze libere (CC BY-SA).
Caricamento di materiale (in pubblico dominio o CC-BY-SA) sui progetti Wikimedia (in particolare immagini su Wikimedia Commons e documenti, testi e pubblicazioni su Wikisource)
Wikipediano in residenza
Editathon (wikipediani guidati da esperti che scrivono voci insieme, oppure addirittura la creazione di un articolo da capo, tutti insieme)
Concorsi a premi per gli articoli migliori
Pass nel backstage per alcuni wikipediani
Sostegno alla digitalizzazione di materiale
Formazione al personale delle istituzioni nel contribuire correttamente ai progetti Wikimedia
Formazione del pubblico delle istituzioni nel contribuire ai progetti Wikimedia.

Lista di donazioni di materiali con numeri

Con un'istituzione qualsiasi, più la "relazione" è profonda, meglio è. Nel senso che una cosa è un archivio che rilascia un fondo in CC-BY-SA nel suo sito, un'altra è un archivio che si impegna in un rapporto con uno o più wikipediani, con i suoi curatori, che carica immagini su Commons e cerca di inserirle negli articoli opportuni, che si impegna assieme ad un capitolo ad impegnare forza lavoro per confrontarsi con utenti di Wikipedia (editathon, backstage, ecc.).

Why should a cultural institution donate/partner with Wikimedia

It fits in closely with the core mission of the cultural institution of preserving heritage and history.
It step jumps the GLAM institution’s reach by increasing potential audiences.
Footfalls to the GLAM institution are likely to increase through greater awareness of the institute’s collection and knowledge.
It will provide a well-tested platform for the digitisation efforts of the GLAM institution. Staff will find it satisfying given its global reach and impact.
There is a strong likelihood of higher public relations coverage of the GLAM institute because of the Wikipedia’s goodwill.
We are a not for profit organisation, (when talking to most GLAMs you can say We are a fellow not for profit organisation).

Al Jazeera

Ha rilasciato video in CC-BY-NC e CC-BY-ND

Arab TV news station Al Jazeera agreed to re-license video footage, previously released under a Creative Commons license with non-commercial or non-derivative restrictions.

[NARA]

Wikipediano in residenza

Qui sotto, pubblichiamo una lettera di Dominic McDevitt-Parks, il wikipediano in residenza al NARA.

I wanted to draw your attention to the US National Archives' new Open Government Plan for 2012-2014[1], which they just recently released. I am really proud of this publication, and I think it shows how far we've come. On page 1, David Ferriero writes:

Knowing we do not have all the answers, we are creating opportunities for citizens to provide substantive contributions, including tags, transcripts, and images. [...] We welcomed a Wikipedian-in-Residence and continue to collaborate on projects, scan-a-thons, and to contribute high resolution digital images to the Wikimedia Commons. Our work with Wikipedia is changing the way we think about our work.

Wikipedia is mentioned 9 times throughout the document, including under the "Tangible Results" section, and Wikimedia Commons and Wikisource each get two mentions as well. We're also mentioned in the timeline of the 2010-2012 plan's implementation on NARA's website.[2] This means that Wikipedia isn't just a cool experiment to NARA; they are drawing the connections between engagement with Wikipedia and fulfillment of their institutional mission. The US president gave the directive to the National Archives to implement a strategy for open government, and their work on Wikipedia is important enough to feature front and center in the document representing their official response. It also means that they think the project has been successful so far; it's worth talking about.

This spotlighting of our work actually isn't new. In December, Carl Malamud started a whitehouse.gov petition drive called "Yes We Scan," calling on the government to create a national effort to digitize all federal public records. David Ferriero was chosen to give the response, and he mentioned Wikipedia in the first paragraph.[3] His own blog post on the matter used the photos from our most recent scanathon,[4] and he also mentioned us, and quoted me(!), in his remarks in the public teleconference he held.[5]

The Open Government Plan is important, I think, not just because it mentions Wikipedia favorably, but because of how it does so, by weaving it in throughout the plan as a part of a larger discussion of open government. It shows that a prestigious GLAM believes that Wikipedia is an integral part of its efforts in public engagement and increasing access, and it is not afraid to say so. Its principles—transparency, participation, and collaboration—and strategies—a "citizen archivist" initiative, which we are a part of—are important for any institution to recognize, and especially public ones. And it is just one short step to extrapolate from "open government" to a broader "open culture", for non-government institutions. I am hoping others around the world will find ways of putting this document to use in helping to carry our message to other institutions.
