 The GLAM-E Lab works directly with GLAM institutions to develop open access solutions accessible to the wider community of Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums. The Lab provides legal counsel to GLAM institutions as they develop open access programs. The solutions created for those institutions are then integrated into model internal policies and external terms of service that can be adopted by other institutions. The goal of this approach is to use lessons learned from directly representing individual institutions to create self-serve model policies that work “off the shelf” for as many institutions as possible. We supplement these model policies with additional guides and resources to address common challenges. In early 2024, the GLAM-E Lab and the Royal Albert Memorial Museum announced a new open access policy for the Museum. You can learn more about this in this video. Since 2022, the GLAM-E Lab has worked in partnership with Wikimedia UK to support cultural heritage institutions across the South West of England in uploading their collections to Wikimedia Commons.
