About Openlab

Openlab is envisioned as a solutions lab, convener, and consultancy designed to accelerate the speed and impact of transformational change in the GLAM (gallery, library, archive, and museum) sector.
The National Endowment for the Humanities has funded, through a collaborative agreement with the Council on Libraries and Information Resources (CLIR), a two-day workshop and unconference to explore the Openlab concept. The workshop will be held on December 1-2 in the Washington, DC area.

[press release] "Following NEH’s mission to provide Americans broad access to the humanities, Openlab is founded on the premise that GLAMs are critical institutions to the humanities and vital stewards of the cultural heritage materials used by researchers, teachers, students, and the broader American public." [press release] "Openlab is based on the premise that GLAMs have profound and important missions in society: to increase and disseminate knowledge, to encourage civic dialog and engagement, and to support individuals in their right to access and participate in culture."
