[OpenGLAM] Fwd: Smithsonian data available for National Day of Civic Hacking!

[Joris Pekel]

Cool! Thanks for sharing.
I've recently seen quite some sets being made available openly. We should
probably do an update on the Open Collections page on the OpenGLAM.org
website. http://openglam.org/open-collections/
Is anybody interested in helping out? Adding the sets is really easy using
the listify tool, just add the info to a spreadsheet.
Let me know and we can set a time/date.

Cheers,

Joris
