'''GLAM''' is an acronym for '''Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums'''. Cultural heritage provides part the bedrock for our verifiable information. It helps to keep all kinds of Wikimedia projects and the open internet trustworthy and reliable, with reference, nuance, and variety from all over the world.

<!--T:3-->
The GLAM Community within the Wikimedia movement spans the globe, engaging with nearly every facet of the movement's work. From uploading visual and audio materials to Commons, to structuring data on Wikidata, to sharing historical texts on Wikisource, institutions and organizations of every size are natural strategic allies in the effort to make knowledge freely accessible to all.
