There is a general table at
http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM-WIKI/Events which was the result of
collecting contacts after the London GLAM-WIKI and I would see no harm
in extending it or using it as a model. This is a bit passive as a way
of managing follow-ups but the default approach (rather than a
strategy) has been to offer and then see if the organizations
follow-up with us rather than the reverse. Of course, as soon as a
contact is made and things get going then it is worth forming an
active collaboration page ( such as the latest,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/DER ).

Note, on the uk.wiki we have taken care not to publish contact details
directly (only the Wikimedian point of contact) in order to avoid any
problems with random strangers data-mining the information and the
idea was to stick to direct email if we need to share contact info.
