[Maarten Brinkerink]

Dear all,

Can I please add that my manager Johan Oomen also fits the OpenGLAM bill quite nicely: http://pro.europeana.eu/introducing-the-candidates/johan-oomen <http://pro.europeana.eu/introducing-the-candidates/johan-oomen>

As do:

Best,

> At the moment, Europeana is changing the way it is governed.  In short, there is now a new organisational structure <https://webmail.kb.nl/owa/redir.aspx?C=zFarJjwz-Uip4SqAnSZMsnn3yr30v9EIFY3dKceB_ZNRMwgvnlRO0EcN5hIfLVAZXoKz6ix9FfE.&URL=http%3a%2f%2fpro.europeana.eu%2fintroducing-the-new-structure> where members of the Europeana network <https://webmail.kb.nl/owa/redir.aspx?C=zFarJjwz-Uip4SqAnSZMsnn3yr30v9EIFY3dKceB_ZNRMwgvnlRO0EcN5hIfLVAZXoKz6ix9FfE.&URL=http%3a%2f%2fpro.europeana.eu%2fnetwork> (which is free to join) will elect people to a governing council. This is in an effort for Europeana as an organisation to be more accountable and responsive to stakeholders' needs.
> You can read the description sent out to current members of the network here: "Putting the Network at the heart of Europeana <https://webmail.kb.nl/owa/redir.aspx?C=zFarJjwz-Uip4SqAnSZMsnn3yr30v9EIFY3dKceB_ZNRMwgvnlRO0EcN5hIfLVAZXoKz6ix9FfE.&URL=http%3a%2f%2fus3.campaign-archive1.com%2f%3fu%3dad318b7566f97eccc895e014e%26id%3dd11882f808%26e%3da08b733b22>"
> The official details, with current list of candidates, is available on the website here: Elections2014  <https://webmail.kb.nl/owa/redir.aspx?C=zFarJjwz-Uip4SqAnSZMsnn3yr30v9EIFY3dKceB_ZNRMwgvnlRO0EcN5hIfLVAZXoKz6ix9FfE.&URL=http%3a%2f%2fpro.europeana.eu%2felections2014>

> 47 people have nominated themselves and 25 of them will make it to the first members' council. It would be really great if a number of people that stand for a strong public domain and #openGLAM in general would make it to this council as it will very much influence the way Europeana is going.

> Some people who fit this description are:
> 
> Jonathan Gray (Open Knowledge)
> Gill Hamilton (National Library of Schotland)
> Paul Keller (Kennisland)
> Merete Sanderhoff (Statens Museum for Kunst)
> 
> And more, have a look at all of them here <http://pro.europeana.eu/introducing-the-candidates>. 
> 
> It would be amazing if you take two minutes to have a look and vote. Nominations close 7th of November, this Friday.
>  
> (to be a candidate, or to vote, you must first be a member of the Europeana Network - which just requires filling out this form online <https://webmail.kb.nl/owa/redir.aspx?C=zFarJjwz-Uip4SqAnSZMsnn3yr30v9EIFY3dKceB_ZNRMwgvnlRO0EcN5hIfLVAZXoKz6ix9FfE.&URL=http%3a%2f%2fpro.europeana.eu%2fweb%2fguest%2fnetwork%2fapply>).

> p.s: I realise it might feel a bit as a conflict of interest for somebody working at Europeana to promote certain candidates, but I checked internally and this is very much supported. I am not allowed to vote myself though, but can support others.
