Beth Knazook, research data project manager at the Digital Repository of Ireland (DRI), is pleased to be joining the Cultural Heritage Open Scholarship Network (CHOSN) webinar series to talk about cultural heritage collections as data for open research.
This webinar introduces the WorldFAIR Project (2022-2024) recommendations for sharing cultural heritage images as data. Participants will learn about the origins of this work within the larger, global ‘collections as data’ movement in the GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums) community, and develop an understanding of how the FAIR principles for research data, widely adopted by the academic sector, align with existing GLAM professional practices. The webinar will conclude with some practical examples of the recommendations in action at DRI and touch on future directions and developments.
