Establishing clear expectations about how staff participate in Wikimedia projects improves the success of these kinds of efforts. For example, though early case studies in the professional literature focused on "just adding links" to Wikipedia or other Wikimedia projects ([$dlib for example]), this was not well received in some Wikimedia communities. Instead, the best practice is for paid staff to contribute knowledge beyond just that stored at the institution, including citations and links to all of the best research materials on a topic, even if it's not held by the institution.
