- Abstract
This panel will provide an overview of the GLAMWiki engagement and partnerships of Wikimedia District of Columbia from a variety of perspectives. Wikimedia DC regularly holds events and engages with cultural institutions within its geographic scope. Given our unique location in the capital of the United States, we have access to a wide variety of potential partners, from numerous colleges and universities, to large national cultural institutions like the Smithsonian Institution, the US National Archives, and the Library of Congress, to small community and history museums, to national professional and service organizations such as the Daughters of the American Revolution and the American Chemical Society. The panel will offer perspectives on logistics, partnership engagement, and community organizing. The panel will also discuss the innovative Wikipedia Space banners, funded by the Knight Foundation, which have become a standard part of our GLAMWiki engagement.
