Publishing and reusing Collections as Data across GLAM Labs and infrastructures: from principles to practice

GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums) institutions have been exploring the publication and reuse of digital collections suitable for computational use, inspired by recent initiatives, such as Collections as Data, which facilitate the development of best practices and guidelines. This workshop will introduce relevant aspects concerning the publication of machine-actionable collections as well as include a hands-on session to create awareness of computational access in the context of international movements such as the International GLAM Labs Community. It will also include an overview of new platforms and environments to share and reuse data.

This workshop is organised by Alba Irollo, Gustavo Candela and Sally Chambers at the Digital Heritage 2025 Conference.
