[OpenGLAM] OKFestival: Call for Proposals open until 16 March

Thu Mar 6 09:56:55 UTC 2014

Dear all,

This summer the Open Knowledge Festival will take place from 15-17 July in
Berlin, bringing together open movement makers, thinkers, activists and
researchers from around the world. Under the title 'Open Minds to Open
Action', the festival will focus on unlocking, expanding and sharing
knowledge through open access, open research data, open educational
resources, open culture, open science, data journalism and campaigning,
data visualisation and literacy.

Of course this is a great opportunity for everyone working on opening up
cultural data to share their findings and experiences, meet others in
related fields, work together on new ideas or organise hackathons around
open cultural data. The call for proposing sessions is open until 16 March:
you can find further details on how to submit here:
http://2014.okfestival.org/programme/propose-a-session/.

>From the OpenGLAM working group we will be submitting several sessions: an
OpenGLAM-focused session on 'Open Data in Cultural Heritage', a legal
sprint for identifying legal restrictions for licensing digitised material
in various countries, a CC toolkit for GLAMs booksprint and a workshop
focused on local GLAMs in Germany - if you wish to contribute to one of
these sessions, just let me know.

Best regards, Lieke Ploeger,
