Welcome, Kara. Looking forward to seeing what fun you and Katie can get
into!

In addition to Jake's links, there are a lot of useful resources that are
GLAM-specific at the GLAM-Wiki US Consortium page. You could get started on
the Contribute tab to get a handle on the types of options & resources
there are for institutions.

The GLAM Bookshelf is a good resource too:

Please don't hesitate to reach out with any other questions.
Lori
