Digital Public Library of America
•   The Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) will make
    the cultural and scientific heritage of humanity available,
    free of charge, to all. The DPLA’s primary focus is on
    making available materials from the United States.
                                      Code – where possible make use of existing
                                      free and open source code; built on open
                                      standards
                                      Metadata – shareable; available under CC0
                                      license to allow for unrestricted reuse; goal to
                                      operate as part of global linked data
                                      environment; resolves to digital objects
                                      Content – incorporate all types of content
                                      beginning with “green lighted” & public domain
                                      content that resolves to digital objects
                                      Tools & Services – provide tools and
                                      services for enhanced use of content and
                                      content creation

Today's Points of Discussion

•   Copyright and open licensing


•    Infrastructure to enable


•   Open business models

•    What are we building?

•   Community as resource
Culture Hack panel SXSW 2013
Copyright and open licensing
Copyright and open data licensing

•   Large institutions making $ selling data?
•   Rights not always clear or known by
    institution
•   Creative Commons has developed licensing
    tools now being widely adopted by CH
    institutions for their data
Copyright and Open data in DPLA
DPLA Policy Statement on Metadata


1) The Vast Majority of Metadata is Not Subject to
   Copyright Restrictions


2) The DPLA's Partners Share the DPLA's Commitment to
   Open Data = CC0 license for all metadata


3) The DPLA asserts NO Rights Over its Database of
   Metadata and Waives all Claims for Infringement
   Thereof.
What Europeana makes available




                      Metadata

Link to digital
objects online
Two categories of rights




Metadata (descriptive object information)

                                      CC


Content (digital objects on the site of the provider)

                               Different
                               options
Rights Statements for content



                                Open
                                Not open – but
                                clear


                                Not
                                open
Infrastructure to enable
APIs and interoperability
•   DPLA API - github.com/dpla
    o   Available under AGPLv3



•   Europeana API
    o   pro.europeana.eu/api
•   Europeana Linked Open data pilot
    o   data.europeana.eu
Data model and interoperability


 From dozens of metadata formats to one
   Europeana Data model
   Consolidated with partners who re-use it – DPLA!


 Licensing framework
   Metadata AND content


 Licensing campaign
   Give better rights data for more content!

‘The business model describes the logic of our organization to create and deliver value’
Case 1

Europeana
We had aggregated millions of objects and made them available
                      through one specific interface
But the portal setup didn’t cater to the needs of wildly differing customer
                                segments...




                                                         2008-2012
Who have their own workflows and preferences for accessing
                       information




                                              2008-2012
The key to this was changing the licensing framework




But how does this affect the business model of our partner institutions?
Case 2

National Archives of the Netherlands
The project made 400 photos available on Flickr-
                The Commons
1M page views
 photos on flickr were viewed 160 times as much as on own
 site...
2000 comments, 14000 tags
Case 3

Rijksmuseum Amsterdam
http://bit.ly/mRoOfp
The Rijksmuseum found out that yellow copies of
Vermeer’s Milkmaid became so persistent on the web that
      visitors started to believe the original was a fake...

Editor's Notes

  1. http://panelpicker.sxsw.com/vote/4580 http://schedule.sxsw.com/2013/events/event_IAP4580
  2. At a working level, we operate in a network of aggregators. We can’t work directly with 2,200 organisations, so we rely on aggregators to collect data, harmonise it, and deliver to Europeana. Aggregators are important because they share a background with the organisations whose content they bring together, so there is close understanding. The aggregation model enables Europeana to collect huge quantities of data from thousands of providers, through only a handful of channels.
  3. Les Miserables: Victor Hugo’s handwritten manuscripts: http://www.europeana.eu/portal/record/9200103/5372912AF66AB529E188218BC1F747E75EB1A18F.html BnF, public domain Matisse ‘53 in the form of a double helix’ http://www.europeana.eu/portal/record/9200104/F8D60AB9136C8A59B59DF1CFEC278A6CABA8B0C6.html The Wellcome Library (CC-BY-NC-ND) ‘ söprűtánc ’ – Hungarian traditional dance http://www.europeana.eu/portal/record/08901/E1A7B01BE4AED87FD239672F4F3941F52262D6B2.html Hungarian Academy of Sciences Institute for Musicolog y, public domain ‘ Neurologico reggae’ Music album http://www.europeana.eu/portal/record/08901/ADC241BCBF8470988DBA6EEAFCF13F14D88E5534.html DISMARC – EuropeanaConnect Paid Access ‘ Castle of Kavala’ 3D exploration of a Greek castle http://www.europeana.eu/portal/record/2020703/05607B24D15BD516EE2B765F74CDA39C7427F7FB.html Cultural and Educational Technology Institute - Research Centre Athen CARARE CC-BY-NC-ND
  4. Building a global community of organisations and individuals committed open up data and content held by Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museum Sharing best practices and providing documentation on the whys and hows of open data and content in cultural her Stimulating the re-use of open cultural data and content by building open source platforms and tools
  5. From the Community / Communities: Make sure - the difference of 'data' and 'content' . Is content "data"? - Digital Humanitities.....etc. point to make - I want to build a new app or project with data or content from my local library what's the best way to approach them and encourage them to let me do it D
  6. Openness with respect to cultural heritage has a multitude of benefits for teaching and research as well as for cultural heritage institutions seeking to become more participatory
  7. Some large CH institutions have made money from selling the metadata about objects they hold CH institutions hold objects for which they don't hold rights, for which the rights status is unknown as well as those objects for which all rights have expired (public domain) Creative Commons have developed licensing tools now being widely adopted by CH institutions for their data - mention CC-0 Europeana release last year
  8. Example used is: http://preview.europeana.eu/portal/record/90402/174D436CF5C61F8AA999090C98DA48B9C7024087.html Een vrouw met een kind in een kelderkamer by Pieter de Hooch, Rijksmuseum, public domain

  13. How do we cater to different end user communities who have different needs?
  14. Ask Audience: what is a business model? The archive sector aims to preserve our heritage and make it broadly accessible Digitization is a powerful tool to reach those goals and create added value. But how does this affect our business model?

  18. Image use in Wikipedia articles March 2012: Walters images were used in a total of 27 Wikipedia articles in 12 languages. This was the month the image upload was completed. [1] December 2012: After continued distribution in projects via crowdsourcing, Walters images are now used in 1,357 articles in over 40 languages. [1] As of December 2012, over 2,130 image are used in Wikimedia projects. Do keep in mind that many images uploaded by the Walters are primary sources (books) or multiple images of one object. [2] Views of pages using Walters images [3] March 2012: Articles using Walters images (27 articles) were viewed 276,843 times in 12 languages. [1] December 2012: Articles using Walters images (1,357) were viewed 10,016,938 times in over 40 languages. [4] Traffic to the Walters website from Wikimedia and Wikipedia January 2012: Before the upload, Wikimedia and Wikipedia websites (all languages) direct about 2,000 visits to the Walters' website, annually. January 2013: After the upload, Wikimedia and Wikipedia websites (all languages) direct about 10,882 visits to the Walters' website, annually. This is an increase of about 544% in the amount of traffic from these sources.
