This repository hosts the main website of the GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums) Data Science Network, which can be found at https://glamdatasci.network/.
Community vision
We are librarians, curators, archivists, cataloguers, researchers, software engineers, marketers, finance & HR professionals and others working in the field of cultural heritage.
We help each other and others to develop confidence, understanding and skills in statistics and data science to make the most of data, improve decision making and ensure data is used ethically in the Cultural Heritage sector.
Project background
In January 2020 Jez Cope was awarded a Software Sustainability Institute Fellowship, to kickstart a cultural heritage data science network at the British Library. I plan to work as openly as possible on this project, and this repository is home to plans, reports and other documents related to the work.
