''When/Where:''
'''[[GLAM/Introductory information|Introductory Information]]''' - the why, how and what of the conference. All the preparatory information formerly seen on the main GLAM-WIKI page before the event.<br>
- 2 day Workshop, 6-7 August, Canberra.  


''Who:''
'''[[GLAM/Schedule|Schedule]]''' of the event itself.
Representative decision-makers of copyright, web & sales departments from Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums (GLAM) across Australia and New Zealand. Representatives from the Wikimedia community including staff from the Foundation and volunteers from the various wiki-projects (including international attedees).  


''Why:''
==Presentations==
Wikimedia projects are the largest, most consulted, most accessible and most easily improved information source available. However the projects' success is dependent on having available good primary and secondary sources (including multimedia and expert knowledge) to  share freely. Cultural institutions a mission to preserve cultural content and the expertise but often lack time, money or staff to do this. Further, preservation requirements or budgetary limitations often conflict with the mission of improving public access. Both Wikimedia and Cultural institutions have a clear common goal to make our cultural heritage available. Using the strengths of each to counteract the disadvantages of the other, both Wikimedia projects and cultural institutions could benefit from collaboration.


The proposed workshop will call together representatives from Australian and New Zealand cultural institutions to '''produce a world first''' - a consensus for how to interact with Wikimedia projects which can form the basis for similar discussions around the world. Furthermore, it would produce a set of mutually-agreed guidelines for what each community needs in order to make any collabotation more positive and productive.

:"Opening remarks"


==Outcomes==
'''Panel Sessions:'''
The tangible outcome of this workshop would be ''a pair of guidelines'' - one for the Wikimedia community and one for the cultural institution - each containing specific, practical measures to enable the achievement of better online public access to cultural heritage. Whilst underlining the unique nature of each institution's role these guidelines would '''demonstrate a shared response''' to the issues raised at the workshop.

Each institution would then be free to act upon these recommendations as it sees fit (the Wikimedia Australia community would assist if requested).
