Hello Mike & others, Each month a newsletter is send out about what activities and projects were active in the past month in relationship to GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums). The newsletter is called 'This Month in GLAM' and is send out on various ways to the Wikimedia community, enthousiasts and more. It is good to tell our own Wikimedia community and the public what activities we do regarding GLAM, as this may help other institutions participate in projects with Wikimedia and for volunteers to help out. For the newsletter about the past month the UK is missing, you mentioned in the e-mail something interesting. Is it possible that you write about it for the newsletter? Or do you know who I can ask to write about it? Thanks! (Deadline of the April edition is 8 May 18:00 UTC, I know it is short term but I hope something is possible.) You can start writing at the page http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Newsletter/Newsroom . If you wish to be informed by e-mail next time, please write me.

Just to avoid any potential misunderstandings here, can I point out that this isn't a WMUK-supported WiR position, i.e. WMUK hasn't been involved in establishing or running this WiR position, and there's no contract between WMUK and the institution (as there is e.g. with TWAM and the Science Museum using an agreement like that at http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Example_WiR_agreement.pdf ). This is something that Andy's doing as an individual.
