As open access initiatives gain traction among cultural institutions, how well-equipped is the Wikimedia movement to fulfill the requirements of cultural and heritage institutions in their GLAM wiki endeavors?

This round table aims to assess GLAM Wiki engagements and workflows, identifying and addressing shortcomings.
