Hello all :)

I am Noopur, a student from Delhi and currently working with the India
Wikipedia community to establish GLAM collaborations. GLAM (Galleries,
Libraries, Archives and Museums) are a few cultural institutions where some
of us, who are passionate about free sharing of knowledge go and request
partnerships. So, we can go ask the National museum and help digitize their
archives and artifacts and make them available to all for free thru
Wikipedia. You can look for more info and case studies on this:
http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM

The reason I am putting it up here is because while we do these events,
it's hard to get people who understand Wiki editing or can take
'appropriate' pictures worth uploading to Commons. I just thought I'd ask
you all if you know curators, museum people, library registrars or anyone
who would want to participate in this. OTOH, I'd love to know if any of you
are interested in helping work with museums and click pictures, write
articles etc. Of course, all of this is unpaid and time consuming but your
bonus is a privileged entry to GLAM collections :-)

Please do holler if you can help in anyway!

(PS. since this is my first post, I am not sure if this is the appropriate
portal for such queries. So, pardon the spam)

thank you,
Warmly
