Thank you Maarten :)

I would be glad to write something about it on OpenGLAM. Flickr stats have really poor tools for analysis but but this past year have been exiting. We are pioneering in being absolutely OPENglam in Finland. Im going to share this story on an upcoming seminar, the national "picture archive days" in Helsinki and I could summarize it on a blogpost.

Hey Tove,

Congrats! Did you do a write up on the statistics on Flickr? I would be really great to get some more insides on that published somewhere (maybe a blogpost on OpenGLAM?)!

Best,

Maarten

I met a few of these folks when I was in Helsinki last year and they pinged me to let me know they were hoping their images would be uploaded to Commons. I just uploaded their content via the awesome Flickr upload:

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Svenska_litteraturs%C3%A4llskapet_i_Finland

all the content in categories is new on Commons.

There is some content related to Swedish culture in Finland, and also some stereoscopes that were in their collection of US places (Boston, Cinci, Nashville). There are some cool photos of historic places in Finland that don't have images...

...enjoy, use, share, etc!


Sarah
