Dear GO::DH,
I'm consulting a faculty member at my U.S. institution who is in turn working with several cultural heritage and activist organizations in Colombia. They have conceived a project that would enable several (not yet in existence) web archives to be browsed together. They're asking about interoperability (before they build things, doing it right!) but also seeking existing models for wrangling many players, generally small organizations and local universities. They'd like to get the project off the ground with agreement on a common vision and everyone's extent of participation, while respecting local autonomy.
Do you know of existing models they/we might look at, for the organizational part? There are many other questions, including who will drive this thing and how it will be funded, and we'll address those here, but first they're looking for best practices regarding how to organize.
I know this is a big question, but if you know of an organizational collective of this kind that is working effectively, I'd appreciate a pointer.
Many thanks, -Vika
