The first example of community crowdsourcing comes from a public library that moved its hosted local community directory (http://community.ahml.info), updated by library staff and volunteers, to a LocalWiki. It is now a community-maintained, wiki-based site. Learn about the decision to migrate, the technical issues that were faced, and the ongoing effort to build a self-sustaining community of contributors. The next example comes from the Smithsonian libraries and archives, which have digitized more than 2 million Smithsonian materials to date and have made the digital content available online. Materials include photographs, diaries, manuscripts, field notebooks, hand-written letters, vocabulary cards of endangered languages, and much more.While these materials are accessible via its brief catalog records, much of the deeper content is locked inside of scanned images without easy searching and readability. The Smithsonian has created a Transcription Center, which is a platform, to invite the public to help unlock the deeper contents and to encourage interactions between communities and the Smithsonian. The transcription project combines information technology and social community interactions to create an inclusive environment for both the Smithsonian and the community at large. Hear about the project scope, system platform, and design considerations; community responses; and project outcome. Gather insights about the challenges, lessons learned, and future project directions.
