[Openglam_members] Next call

Mon Nov 9 07:51:04 UTC 2015

Dear all,

Great that we are having this discussion. For me the added value of the working group comes down to:

1. Keeping each other up to speed on what is happening on the national level
2. Seeing how we can replicate the respective national initiatives in our own context and learn from previous experiences
3. Looking at cross-pollination and connections of open heritage on a global level (in reuse)

Especially the latter is something where I see a lot of potential, that we mostly aren’t fulfilling at the moment. 

Best,

Maarten

> I just had a call with just Beat. It was useful as we could talk about some things for my upcoming presentation at DISH, but we also discussed the purpose of these monthly calls. We think they worked exceptionally well when we were preparing for an event such as OKFest. As we did not have anything like that this year, it becomes a bit hard to see the purpose other than updating each other what we are working on. While this is very often interesting to hear, I think the mailing list is a better tool for that.

> I would therefore like to discuss with you all what the purpose of the working group currently is. How can we shape the group and its activities that it is useful for you? Is it mostly to learn from initiatives from other countries? To build stuff together? To encourage each other? I think as the original goal of these calls is not happening at the moment, we need to re-think what we want to achieve, and then come up with the best way to achieve that.

> My proposal would be to first hear back from Lieke what the plans of the OKF are with OpenGLAM in the next two years. After that we can open up the discussion how this group fits in that and if it aligns with what each individual member wants to get out of its membership. Maybe the group should grow for example, maybe not. Maybe it is more useful to setup monthly lectures where one person invited to explain something about a project they are doing and everybody on the OpenGLAM public list can tune in. Stuff like that.
