Cultural "GLAM" institutions

  • WikiProject GLAM/SI - Collaboration and outreach with the Smithsonian Institution. Goals are to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to the Smithsonian Institution. We are providing mentorship and serving as a liaison between the Smithsonian and the Wikipedia community, and teaching Smithsonian staff how to contribute to Wikipedia. Special focus includes American art, with a Wikipedian-in-Residence (Summer 2011) at the Archives of American Art.
  • WikiProject FedFlix and collaboration with the National Archives & Records Administration
