Australian institutions contribute significantly to Wikimedia Commons, which is a valuable media resource for Wikipedia writers and the general public. By sharing images, sound and video from their heritage collections, these institutions increase the visibility and accessibility of Australian cultural heritage, and foster a global appreciation for Australia’s historical collections.

The GLAM reports below are a great example of how digital platforms can be used to preserve and promote cultural heritage on an international scale - so where on Wikipedia are images used? 

Using the [https://kbnlwikimedia.github.io/GLAMorousToHTML/ GLAMorousToHTML] tool, [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:OlafJanssen Olaf Janssen], Wikimedia & open data at [https://www.kb.nl/en Koninklijke Bibliotheek], has shared some nifty reports to show just that! The GLAMorousToHTML tool creates a HTML page and Excel file that lists all Wikipedia articles (in all languages) in which (one or more) images from a given category on Wikimedia Commons are used.

== GLAM Reports for Australia and New Zealand ==
