Conclusion

Partners We work with public and open knowledge projects from a wide variety of sectors and disciplines, including GLAM (galleries, libraries, archives, museums), science, civil society, government and commerce. We also partner directly with individual organizations, groups of networked organizations, multi-stakeholder consortia and projects embedded in institutions. Our goal is to support any partner from these groups regardless of their needs, discipline, assets or capacities. However, we do have limited resources; thus, each relationship must be carefully evaluated. The most common types of partners we currently work with are: Institutions (e.g., Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, the Smithsonian Institution) Networks (e.g., Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastruktur) Projects embedded in institutions (e.g., FactGrid at the University of Erfurt) Large-scale, grant-funded consortia (e.g., QURATOR, OPEN!NEXT)
