[GLAM] Wikimedia for the first time represented on Europeanas member council

[Barbara Fischer]

Dear colleages,

in a nutshell: Europeana <http://www.europeana.eu/portal/de#> is the
European answer to the Google art project. It might not contain so awesome
images but a lot more diverse material. I am very happy that I was elected
to become a member of its council last fall. For the first time a Wikimedia
representative has become a member and here you find my introduction
blogpost, published today:

http://pro.europeana.eu/blogpost/meet-the-members-council-barbara-fischer

In February the new council will meet. Please, come with ideas on what I
should focus beyond the things I mentioned in the blog post.

Kudos Barbara,

I read the blog and totally agree with you regarding the fact that
contents, after being free and available, need a further processing so as
to make them reusable by various entry points (bloggers, bots, scientists,
artists, etc).

You could focus on that aspect, the reusability of data. The Wikidata
project stands out as a perfect paragon of this concept. Explaining how the
structured-data approach of wikidata itself can facilitate content
reusability across various targets could be valuable.

Cheers,

This is awesome Barbara: Kudos!

Generally, the next couple years should be a growing set of opportunities
between Europeana and Wikimedia communities. Wikidata is mature enough to
be useful, Structured Data on Commons is coming (which means the kinds of
data needed for media data, will also be enriched by our community), and
Europeana continues to invest in programming that brings the communities
closer.

I think one of the biggest challenges (and I am actually talking to folks
in DPLA about this too), is making sure that all the work on identifiers
that we integrate into Wikidata also finds its way into matching
institutional metadata. Gently pushing in that direction would be awesome :)

Cheers,

Alex
