Introduction

I am Victoria Leachman and I live in Wellington, New Zealand. I am a GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives & Museums) professional having worked in museums for my entire career, initially as a museum collection manager, then as a manager of copyright processes within a museum, and now as an executive and people manager making collections more accessible and reuseable for the public. I manage teams responsible for a research library, corporate archives and records, copyright clearances and processes, collections information management and data and digital preservation workflows, imaging, publishing, and lending collection items.

I contribute to the Wikiverse through my contribution as President of Wikimedia Aotearoa New Zealand incorporated society - the New Zealand affiliate to Wikimedia Foundation. With Ambrosia10 I co-organise and facilitate two regular user meetups - the Aotearoa New Zealand Online monthly meetup and the Wellington monthly meetup.

Conflict of Interest

I work for the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa. My full conflict of interest statement is available on my Wikipedia User page.

Copyright templates

My favourite copyright templates for externally sourced imagery are:

{{PD-New Zealand}} Image is out of copyright in the New Zealand jurisdiction e.g. historic image taken on or prior to 31 December 1943.

{{PD-1996 |country=New Zealand}} Image is out of copyright in the USA because it meets three requirements:

• it was first published outside the United States (and not published in the U.S. within 30 days),
• it was first published before 1 March 1989 without copyright notice or before 1964 without copyright renewal or before the source country established copyright relations with the United States,
• it was in the public domain in its home country on the URAA date (January 1, 1996 for most countries).

where "published" means distributed to the public

{{PD-old-70-expired}} For public domain works from the United States where creator died end of calendar year + 70 years or more ago.

Declaration

I had an alternative account User:Islandbaygardener that I had for a few years but in 2017 I decided to have a clean start so started this account. I've retired the previous account as per the Clean Start process. I decided to make this change to mark a new phase in my contributions and commitment to the wiki-verse.
