GLAM
GLAM is traditionally used to refer to Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums. While this term is imperfect and underinclusive, no alternative is put forward. Instead, GLAM is used as shorthand and intended to encompass anyone within the scope of activities discussed in this resource, including private or commercial organizations and owners involved in the reproduction and management of cultural heritage, as well as individuals and users.
