INTRODUKTION

More and more cultural heritage institutions use the internet to make their collections available for students, genealogists and others interested, who do not have time to get to the physical building or who live far away, even in other countries. In many cases publication bring on increased dialogue with visitors. Older material may get new contexts - the institutions usually need not to work for it. For staff, it means that their skills meet a wider audience, something they usually appreciate. Digitization also means that the object is not torn by careless visitors.

The technology brings with problems of copyright, how to choose what will be digitized, and how experts and non-professionals can collaborate. Many institutions are uncertain. They want guidance in order to make it right - or to avoid mistakes.

This brochure is the result of many discussions among about 50 influential organizations: cultural heritage institutions, government heterogeneous, lawyers, copyright individual associations, regions, politicians, the Wikimedia movement, Creative Commons and Coordination Secretariat for digitization (DigiSam). The brochure begins with a proposed joint accessibility policy, then present clear rules on what institutions can and can not publish, and then goes into the various methods of working with the public via Wikipedia. It then discusses copyright licenses and the matter of work without known creator. Near the end it presents the Copyright Law and some frequently asked questions, before an overview of the Wikipedia rounds of the content.

Our most important advice is: Start with a small test and do it now. You will be surprised over the result. We would like to help you. Contact us:

A common practices to publish the cultural heritage on the internet

Gutenberg Bible. NYC Wanderer (Kevin Eng), CC-BY-SA-2.0-US, http://bit.ly/GutenbergBibel

The cultural heritage institutions have the mission to make our common history available to the public. Internet offers new ways to do that. The government therefore presented in 2011 its Digital Agenda (http://bit.ly/DigAgenda). In spite of that the digitization of cultural heritage has not really begun yet. As barriers are a sometimes fuzzy copyright law. Other institutions have already made ​​great progress. But access to cultural heritage should not be arbitrary or based on enthusiasts. A clearer copyright law is on the way. Legislation often takes into account the established use. Therefor archives, libraries and museums now have the opportunity - and the responsibility - to find a sustainable solution. The solution must have the balance between copyrights holders' needs and the mission of making cultural heritage accessible. Fortunately, many institutions, both in Sweden and

side 5

other countries, have started thinking along the same lines. A common practice is under construction. One example is "Over the memory wall" (http://bit.ly/Minnesmuren) which The Regional Board of Västra Götaland decided to make regional policy in June 2012.

In the box above is a possible digitization policy. It is designed to meet both copyrights law and cultural heritage institution’s mission of making cultural heritage accessible to the public. The bullet points are discussed in more detail in this brochure, but of course needs and experiences differ between institutions. Discuss therefor the different bullet points internally and adapt them for your own use.

COMMON DIGITIZATION POLICY

• prioritize the digitization of materials that can be published freely.

• specify the terms of use of the material. Allow commercial use. Use, for example, the license CC-BY-SA, which include attribution of the author. For more information about licensing, see later in this brochure.

• digitization does not give new copyright. Materials with extinct copyright or without originality are labeled with Public Domain Mark, so that users know that the material is free.

• specify the author's name or that the identity is unknown, even for materials with extinct rights. Indicate whether works are processed before publishing.

• photographs are mostly photographic images (50-year protection after produced). Photographic pictures which were taken before 1969 are free. Artistic works (70-year protection after the photographer's death) is the exception.

• prioritize acquisitions without restrictions in use. Write non-exclusive agreements with outside partners. Material produced by your employees at work gets a free license.

• insert metadata (including photographer, owner, time, location, license) in the files separately.

• publish with persistent hyperlinks.

• make the material easy to find, for example, on Wikipedia or the Wikimedia Commons.

• offer simple ways of contact for those who have opinions on the publication.

How the culture heritage becomes available for everybody

The Wikipedian Ralf Roletscheck in Heichingen church, Taxiarchos228 (modification: Max Lisewski), CC-BY 3.0), http://bit.ly/SKircheH

In order to see the cultural heritage as available, it should be published in the places the public visit. Your own archives are great, but they are rarely easy to find. Rather, use established publishing systems, or connect your archive to any large database. We recommend Wikipedia, which is well attended and stable.

Photos, videos and other media on Wikipedia are free for anyone to copy, reuse, process, and even sell. The material resides in the sister project, Wikimedia Commons. Upload your content there, so it can be entered into Wikipedia articles. The easiest way to get there is by clicking on an image on the Swedish Wikipedia.

FILE UPLOADING

To upload single files to Wikimedia Commons is not difficult. You need a user account. Then follow the instructions. Try to choose materials that have public interest. To upload large numbers of files, there are two methods: the tool Commonist that you download, and specially written programs which a Wikipedian operates. In both cases,structured metadata (file name, description, categories, etc.) is needed to get the information in the right fields and for visitors to find the material. Deep links to the institution's collection is appreciated. Contact Wikimedia Sweden for help with getting started, via info@wikimedia.se.

side 7

HVAD SKER DER MED MATERIALET?

All materials will not have many visitors, but the chances increase if you categorize it, have rich metadata, put the files in existing Wikipedia articles (in several languages), write new articles where the material fits, and tips about the material in social media and for Wikipedians who are interested in the subject field. Be prepared to answer questions and to receive corrections and additions. The material begins to live its own life and reach students as well as researchers.

EKSEMPEL

Institutions around the world have already uploaded images to Wikimedia Commons: the Smithsonian, the British Museum, the German Federale Bundesarchiv, the Brooklyn Museum, the Versailles, Dutch Troopenmuseum, California Academy of Sciences, the Nordic Museum, Regional Archives in Västra Götaland, the Swedish National Heritage Board and the Royal Armoury and many more. We also cooperate with Europeana. For more information, see: http://bit.ly/commonspartnerships.

Giving access to the public

REASONS TO WORK WITH THE PUBLIC

Many cultural institutions have gradually started to invite the public by asking questions and discussing. But the public has much knowledge that you have not. Michael Epson from the Smithsonian usually cite Joy's Law: "No matter what you do, the smartest people work for someone else."

AN EXAMPLE OF WORKING WITH THE PUBLIC

Wikipedia differs from other encyclopedias by the "edit" button on each article. All texts are written, polished and controlled by the public. Among the contributors there are experts in the oddest areas, both graduates and self-taught. They are volunteers and devotees, something you notice in the discussions. Above all, they are many. Wikipedia has been called the world's largest collaboration. Only on the Swedish Wikipedia there are thousands of people who contribute regularly, and even more make only occasional edits. The effect of the "swarm" is seen perhaps most clearly in popular articles, which grows and improves with impressive speed. The width of topics is just as wide. The strength of the public is already used by some heritage institutions on Facebook, Twitter and Flickr. More cultural heritage institutions could benefit from that.

HVAD KAN OFFENTLIGHEDEN HJÆLPE MED?

Offentligheden kan:

• add missing information (such as who the photograph represents or 'tags')

page 9

• correct erroneous information

• tell what is interesting (that reduces the risk that you are working with material that remains unused)

• provide feedback on the institutions’ efforts and suggestions for improvement

• spread news and interesting facts to their friends and contacts

• photograph and scan material

• proofread OCR -processed text

• restore / colorize images (picture to the right, and yes, we know it's controversial, but it has its use)

• write Wikipedia articles in other languages

As in the case of digitization, it is not important to do everything at once. Try, and you will get experience.

Further use

TO SPREAD YOUR MATERIAL

Reuse is one of the major advantages that material is available on the internet. When the material is reused, it serves as a reminder of the original (and whoever has it in their collection).

In order for the digital cultural heritage to be available in the future, there must be clear rules for those who want to reuse the material. It is difficult to find the one that owns the rights 50 years after publication, and it is unnecessary double work to be forced to contact the copyright owner and ask for permission to reuse the material - especially if the heritage institution does not have anything against that the material is spread. Therefore, we recommend everyone to clearly note their content by how it can be used, regardless if it is Public Domain Mark, a free license or traditional copyright.

WIKIPEDIAS LICENSER

Wikipedia uses only materials that are either public domain or available under a free license. Wikipedia’s standard license is CC-BY-SA. CC stands for Creative Commons, BY means that you have to specify the creator, and SA stands for "share alike", which means that the next person has to share material further on the same conditions. In short CC-BY-SA means that anyone can copy, distribute, process and even sell all texts and images under a few conditions. The conditions are to specify who created the work, which license the material has and where others can find it and that those who use the material reuses the license even if it is copied or processed. However, you not need to ask in advance before using the work. The captions in this book are good examples.

OFFENTLIGT DOMÆNE

Unfortunately there is no concept of Public domain in Swedish law, but you can still specify that the work is no longer copyrighted, for example with Public Domain Mark. It is dishonest to claim that one owns the rights of works that are too old to be covered by copyright.

COMMERCIAL OR NON-COMMERCIAL

There is a Creative Common License, which prohibits commercial use. For some heritage institutions this may seem attractive. Unfortunately such material can not be used on Wikipedia. This is because it is not easy to determine what is commercial. For example: Is a free book non-commercial if the printer gets paid? A further survey is available here: http://bit.ly/CC-NC

Many fear that big companies will sell the institution's materials, but those are usually likely to have control over their material. Moreover, the lion's share of cultural heritage is not profitable (remember that sale involves personnel costs).

side 11

Therefore, we advocate that the material should also be allowed to be used commercially, especially materials which are created and protected by public funding, because taxpayers have already paid for the work.

METADATA

Metadata, such as copyright owner, when the material was created, 'tags', etc., are information about a data file, such as a photograph, which was sent with or inside the file. For cultural heritage institutions and Wikipedia metadata is important. It makes it easier to find the material. Structured metadata also enables automated uploading and sorting. There are several tools to edit metadata, such as ExifTool and EXIFutils. Usually, the IT department may help with that.

What can the cultural heritage institutions do together with Wikimedia Sverige and Wikipedians? Regardless if the idea comes from individual Wikipedians or from an institution Wikimedia Sverige can inform contacts, provide experience and create the right conditions for success.

SOME OPPORTUNITIES TO COOPERATION

A group of Wikipedians make a trip to a cultural heritage institution. They take photographs for part of the collections and upload freely licensed images in our media archive Wikimedia Commons. Sometimes they get access to source materials or ideas to new Wikipedia articles.

The institution organize a competition to spur Wikipedian to write new articles about topics which are close to the institution's collections.

A Wikipedian presents for staff and supporters in the department about how to edit Wikipedia’s articles, how to upload pictures and what free licenses means. Wikimedia Sweden advises about licenses, maintenance of metadata and other digitization’s issues

A "Wikipedian in Residence" works for a long time (a few months, a year) at a culture heritage institution. Han or she trains staff to edit on Wikipedia, and set up a work plan for further work. Wikimedia Sweden can help to find a suitable candidate.

Fotograf: ukendt

Quite often there is at first sight no or little information available about the photographer, on the date of creation, on the relation between photo and the commissioner of the photo, et cetera.

Is it then permitted to publish online, if there is no year of death of the photographer known, or if there is no clues to who is the copyright holder?

1. Try to find relevant information at the back of the photograph, in records related to the object or maybe in a possible letter of donation!

2. Drawings by children are not considered as material of originality, so in this case there is no need to inquire into additional information.

3. If the material is issued as early as before the year 1900, one can reasonably assume that the period of protection has expired. Recently a new method for publishing of newer works of art has also been discussed within the European Commission framework. The EU Commission has proposed the method to be included in an EU directive (http://bi t.ly/anonymaverk). That method would include the carrying out of a diligent search and the documentation of that search. After such a procedure, ýou may make use of the material, although you have to be prepared to be contacted afterwards by the copyright holder and may have to pay a fee for the use of the material.

4. Some possible sources of information on relevant copyright issues are given below:

• interest organizations for copyright holders (in Sweden STIM, BUS, SFF)

• (copyright) trade organizations and individual professionals

• biographies and biographical handbooks ( e.g. Who is Who?), demographic databases (e.g. Sveriges dödbok), specialized websites (e.g. Eniro and Hitta) and general search engines like Google and Bing.

• National people registries (Folkbokföring) and probate documents held by Tax Authorities and local archives

• Companies Registration Offices and Businesses Archives Institutions

• Reversed picture searching, such as TinEye (where you may find identical or similar images, see http://www.tineye.com)

The publisher is the entity that has responsibility. Wikipedians therefore are careful with "orphan" works of art, if they are not old enough copyright to have expired.

side 15

Photos by the pioneer photographer Gustave Le Gray were rediscovered in the collections of the Region Archive (Regionarkivet) in Gothenburg, Sweden. The Region Archive did upload these photos to Wikimedia Commons. The location of the photo above was identified, about 150 years after the photo was taken. There are other anecdotes about earlier unknown persons who have been identified, and about misinterpreted facts which have been corrected by widespread exposure. The more eyes we will have at our disposal, the more we will discover on old photos.

--- [Training and exchange of experience in Lüneberg, Ziko, CC:BY-SA http.....]

In several countries, Wikipedians have been able to look behind the curtains of institutions of cultural heritage and exchange experiences of digitization with their staff.

The scanning in itself is only one step in a successful digitization process. Wikipedians need metadata. Even if some information is missing, one should strive for the inclusion of as much metadata as possible, including deep links into the websites of the institutions concerned, information on the exact location of the material within the physical archives, qualified interpretations of signatures, et cetera.

side 16

Heritage Institutions & their Wikipedia articles

Wikipedia articles normally will rank high in answers of web searches with search engines. Many individuals, commercial companies and other organizations want to use this fact to their advantage. If Wikipedia were to allow a practice of PR biased articles, the confidence of the public would soon wane. Therefore, Wikipedia has strong protection mechanisms for such "misuse". Edits are being screened by countless volunteer editors. Of course there is a difference between a case where a PR consult will "improve" an article about medical products and a case where an archive or another public institution will increase the content of an article about their institution. But even benevolent organizations happen to do inappropriate edits, such as writing information on opening hours, and using an improper marketing language. To write about your own organization in Wikipedia is not prohibited, and must not be totally avoided, but such edits should be limited to the correction of factual or spelling errors, or adding facts on history and the like. In doubt whether a contribution would be acceptable, please ask a Wikipedian for advice.

side 17

CAN HERITAGE INSTITUTIONS WORK ON WIKIPEDIA?

When the staff of an institution want to edit Wikipedia articles, they are advised to participate in the Wikipedia community in a wider context and with a continuity, rather than just dump their material at one go. There are many suitable tasks for heritage institution staff, with their professional experience, to perform:

• Improving the balance of an article - mostly by adding text about the most important issues

• Identifying good sources, which other contributors also can make use of

• ranking articles by priority and thus ensure that the most important articles will be enlarged and checked for quality first

• improving broad articles, such as "Renaissance History" or "Baroque Art"

• writing on issues listed on "Wikipedia: Wish lists"

Please note that experts on a subject matter will not automatically be considered by the Wikipedia community to have a special status as expert editors. Other users will critically scrutinize the any input and reedit the material without consideration of a declared expert status. However, history tells that old users will assist newcomers to increase the quality of the article in a constructive way. In case there will be a problem, you may always make use of tools, such as the discussions pages associated with the articles concerned, to sort out a problem, or ask other Wikipedians for advice.

[Grey box, left column] The digital file also has to be sustained, This will be easier if a file is not compressed or alternately not compressed with a degraded compression method.

[Grey box left column] Metadata will make the material searchable. Thus there is a need of:

• a standardised description of the material
• a substantiated title
• a unique identifier, like the social security number (personnummer)
• linkage to other pieces of material

At the same time do mark the material with the correct copyright license. Metadata shall be in a standardized format, and be open for use by anybody. You will advice on formats at: http://bi t.ly/raformat.

[Grey box, middle column, box with a red x] Warning for:

• Rare metadata formats
• Meta data formats that crave legal agreements with suppliers
• cryptation of metadata and/or copyprotected metadata

[Grey box, right] Even if the goal of digitizing is longevity, the material should be made as available as possible. A not complete digitizing process - without publishing - is of much lower value. Do publish freely at sites frequented by the public.

The number of visitors you will achieve depends on the quality of your presentation of the publishing in both social and traditional media, and on the searchability of the material, i.e. if it is included in more extended datasets and if it has relevant tags or other search items attached.

WIKIMEDIA

In just a few years, Wikipedia has been transferred from a ridiculed idea to a work of historic proportions. With over 25 million articles, which can match with most modern encyclopedia, with more than 280 separate languages, Wikipedia is the largest encyclopedia. The project has created by hundreds of thousands of volunteers around the world and is visited each month by about half a billion people, which make Wikipedia one of the ten most visited websites.

WIKIMEDIA’S LOCAL CHAPTERS

Dark Blue: Existing local chapters Dark green: Accepted but not incorporated chapters Medium Green: Planned chapters Light green: Discussion about forming chapters

The non-profit organization Wikimedia Sverige has the goal to make knowledge freely available. The chapter organize such as education and photo contests, and participate in exhibitions and in the media to spread knowledge about Wikipedia and other free projects.

Around the world there are about 40 similar local organizations that work closely with the Wikimedia Foundation in the United States. Wikimedia Foundation is the non-profit organization that operates Wikipedia. All Wikimedia projects are independent, commercial-free and only possible through volunteer work and donations.

KULTURSKATTE PÅ INTERNETTET

To digitize and make cultural heritage accessible is not only part of the mission of archives, libraries and museums. It is an opportunity to meet new target groups. It is also a way to remain relevant in the future.

That does not mean it's easy. Therefore, in this brochure there are advice and tools for the cultural heritage institution that is on the way of digitizing, or has already begun. From how to choose materials to digitize to how the institution can work with Wikipedia.
