Hi all Just over a year ago Te Papa released over 30000 images (now over 48,000) for high resolution download under No Known Copyright Restrictions statement or a CC BY-ND-NC licence. We are doing a decent analysis of the impact of the release, and would really like some benchmark data. If you have followed a similar path (bigger or smaller) would you be willing to offer quick answers to a few questions? I well know answering these types of questions can be time consuming, so I'd be happy with whatever you are able to provide. Even better, if you've already done some analysis you can send/point me to, that'd be cool too! Feel free to respond on or off-list ([log in to unmask]) - When do you first launch your open access images? - How many collection objects do you have online? - How many collection images do you have online? - How many images did you make available for download? - Can you break down images per licence (e.g. 2000k at CC, etc)? - How many downloads did you have in the first 12 months? - Do you have any other metrics that might be useful to understand the impact of your project? - Do you have any key examples of uses/stories/impact about the release you would like to share? - Are you willing to share any information on (positive or otherwise) commercial activities? I'll share results of our analysis and benchmarks (anonymised if requested) when complete Cheers Adrian Kingston Digital Collections Senior Analyst Collections Information Services Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Visit the Te Papa website http://www.tepapa.govt.nz The email message together with the accompanying attachments may be CONFIDENTIAL.
