December Classes Spotlight: 

 

Crowdsourcing for Digital Collections

 

Tuesday, December 12, 2017

1:00 PM - 3:00 PM ET

 

Join us to dig in to this special topic and leave with practical information that you can apply to contemporary crowdsourcing projects. 

 

The instructors will focus on applying basic definitions common in crowdsourcing but also point to a number of model projects that can be found in archives, museums, scientific collections, libraries and other organizations that we can learn from. The class will examine infrastructure needs, successful workflows, and lessons learned.
