Hello everyone,

Our April community call is today - 16:00 UTC (9 AM California | 12 PM Washington DC | 16:00 UK | 17:00 Paris | 03:00 (+1) Sydney, please note the time shift for colleagues outside of the USA).

Mia Ridge (British Library), Samantha Blickhan (Zooniverse), and Meghan Ferriter (US General Services Administration) will discuss the lessons from crowdsourcing that apply to ML / AI - from the work needed before, during and after to ensure data can be used; supporting people involved in these processes based on what has been learned in projects that blend crowdsourcing + ML; to what is done when you get the data; and the need to interrogate ongoing methods in light of emerging technologies and your organisation's values.

They’ll conclude by connecting these themes to the recommendations of the 2023 Collective Wisdom Project White Paper. They’ll also invite you to share or complete a survey about ingesting / integrating data enriched by crowdsourcing and/or AI/machine learning into digital collections platforms. A blog post has further information and a preview of all the survey questions: https://collectivewisdomproject.org.uk/survey-integrating-volunteer-and-ai-enriched-metadata-into-collections-systems The survey takes about 15 mins to complete: https://forms.gle/JgArpbL6VNM6W3Vk9 and the results will be shared with the AI4LAM community.

Further details, including the joining details, can be found on our agenda/notes document here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10JSDVVXS1qwNqa_DgH099ZjkfWKuVmcMOKV1oWVEZ9Q/edit?usp=sharing. Register your interest and mark yourself as attending!

The correct hours for today's meeting are:  16:00 UTC (8 AM California | 11 PM Washington DC | 16:00 UK | 17:00 Paris | 03:00 (+1) Sydney, please note the time shift for colleagues outside of the USA).

Apologies for any confusion earlier; the times for USA were inadvertently shifted an hour ahead. 

Best,
