Toulouse
AncelyBot has finished uploading the Fonds Ancely: Personal collections of Réné Ancely acquired by the city of Toulouse in 1967 and curated by the Bibliothèque municipale de Toulouse. As a result, over 2000 pictures were automatically uploaded by AncelyBot after volunteers from Wikimédia France GLAM workgroup have worked on the metadata conversion process.

The intern worked with Wikimédia France GLAM workgroup in order to get some help with the metadata. The result of the intership is that all artworks exposed in the Salon rouge have been uploaded by the Museum.
