[OpenGLAM] help - outstanding cases in opening data/ reuse cases

Mon Aug 5 09:56:02 UTC 2013

Hi all,

these videos about the open culture data project in The Netherlands might
be of interest to you:
http://openbeelden.nl/media/639519/Open_Culture_Data__from_ad_hoc_activity_to_solid_network_subtitled
This is the first video of a series of four, the other three are in the
right column.

They touch on some of your questions. You can download the full HD versions
too.

Best,

Sebastiaan
