Come comunità che condivide i tuoi stessi obiettivi di condividere la conoscenza con il mondo, i progetti Wikimedia possono offrire una potente piattaforma per raggiungere un vasto pubblico con contenuti, conoscenze ed esperienze relative alle collezioni del patrimonio culturale.

Alcuni esempi concreti sul perché i progetti Wikimedia hanno un forte impatto:

• Ottieni oltre 20 miliardi di visualizzazioni di pagine al mese da tutto il mondo.
• Sono altamente visibili da diversi pubblici
  • attraverso semplici ricerche su Google o altri motori di ricerca
  • essendo incorporato sia nei social media che nei siti educativi e per l'apprendimento
• raggiungi diversi tipi di persone interessate ad imparare: dai semplici curiosi e visitatori occasionali agli studenti, dagli esperti e funzionari pubblici fino ai lobbisti.
• metti le tue collezioni istituzionali nel contesto di altri tipi di conoscenza.

Gallerie, biblioteche, archivi e musei (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums - GLAM) lavorano con i progetti Wikimedia per assicurarsi che queste piattaforme globali, condivise e multilingue presentino la migliore informazione possibile rispetto alle proprie area di competenza, contribuendo alle missioni di queste organizzazioni e migliorando l'accesso alla loro conoscenza e alle collezioni.

Le comunità Wikimedia hanno imparato molto dalle comunità dei professionisti che lavorano con i GLAM. Abbiamo messo a punto alcune tattiche e strategie per assicurarci che i partenariati tra i GLAM e le comunità Wikimedia portino un beneficio reciproco.

Che tipi di progetti o tattiche posso mettere in atto collaborando con Wikimedia come GLAM?

I progetti GLAM-Wiki tendono a iniziare con uno o due obiettivi di alto livello:

Condivisione delle collezioni digitali

Condivisione della conoscenza

One of the items held in the Universidade de São Paulo Veterinary Museum, that has been used to illustrate many language Wikipedias. Some of the most common projects where GLAMs work with Wikimedia Community are partnerships with local Wikimedia communities to create and share digital collections. Multimedia shared on Wikimedia projects illustrate the most viewed sources of information on the web, and ensure your collection will be seen and used around the world. Frequently these include batch uploads to Wikimedia Commons. The collaborations range from uploads of a handful of math videos or pictures of veterinary collections from University Museums in Brazil, to massive contributions of open licensed content from the Metropolitan Museum or British Library. Each one, provides the opportunity for the local collections to represent and engaged with by users around the world: ensuring the institutional mission of sharing . Who would have imagined that the Veterinary Anatomy collection at Universidade de São Paulo would be viewed by a global public over a million times in a month? There are other ways to share the digital media collections: by transcribing them on Wikisource, or created new recordings or photographs of living traditions, or putting the data about objects in the context of Wikidata. Each of these projects can contribute to the work of the institution: to enrich, share or make more accessible objects in the collection.

Public Libraries in Catalonia share their Wikimedia participation on the front door of their libraries: proudly sharing that they are "Wikipedia Libraries". GLAMs have many different objectives in their mission beyond just sharing their collections. Wikimedia projects can offer strong platforms for sharing knowledge of all types to wide audiences, from improving coverage of topics important to institutions, to creating public awareness of underrepresented communities or fields of knowledge, to creating powerful visualizations of linked open data related to institutional expertise. GLAMs work with local Wikimedia communities to develop the best strategies and tactics for fulfilling their missions: sometimes this includes hosting editing events; or coordinate online editing campaigns; or integrating data into Wikidata; or figuring out how to best embed Wikimedia content into institutional websites or exhibitions. From small local-historical organizations or public libraries, to some of the largest institutions in the World, like national archives or libraries in the United States, Wales, Ghana, Italy, Bulgaria and the Netherlands, Wikimedia communities have partnered with organizations of all types. Engaging GLAM staff to share their knowledge with the world, helps ensure that the public and researchers find institutional expertise when they need it.

Write your own case study! Help us learn from your experience!

Have you run a GLAM-Wiki project? Does it employ a tactic or strategy not used by other Wikimedia Communities? Help us learn about that project, and how other communities can replicate similar strategies.

To get started, fill out the form box below with a descriptive name. Usually this will be the name of the institution which you partnered with or the title of the project. Once you have chosen that title, click the "Draft a case study!" button, and you will be taken to a page where you can start drafting your case study.
