What does GLAM mean?
The collaboration between museums, archives, and libraries (GLAM) is based on the assumption that these three types of organizations, sharing the mission of conserving and enhancing the cultural heritage they collect, address the same communities, offer similar services, and share working practices.
However, the disciplinary fields of the professionals involved are very different, and the operating models and management and enhancement practices of the organizations are not always compatible.
