GLAM Connection: Fashion, History, and Biodiversity in May

By HGodinho
GLAM Presentation 2026 - Wikimedia Brasil
Check out the new GLAM partnership presentation

May was packed with activities, new batch uploads, and even a brand-new resource to pitch GLAM partnerships to potential institutions!

This new presentation resource focuses on introducing how a GLAM partnership works, breaking it down into its four key stages: political, legal, technical, and outreach.

Eva Klabin Fashion Collection: New upload from Casa Museu Eva Klabin

The Eva Klabin House Museum brought a new part of its collection to Wikimedia Commons! This batch aligns with their exhibition "Beleza habitada: Eva Klabin, moda e memórias" (Inhabited Beauty: Eva Klabin, fashion, and memories). To make things even better, this outreach initiative also led to a Wikipedia edit-a-thon.

19th and 20th-Century Criminal Cases: CMU sample upload

The Centro de Memória-Unicamp (CMU) completed an exciting sample upload to Wikimedia Commons, featuring 19th and 20th-century criminal cases from the Campinas Registry Court. Their goal is ambitious: uploading nearly 4,000 documents over the coming months! To boost this initiative, the institution is offering a transcription course on Wikisource this June. Don't miss out!
