Beyond museums and traditional heritage institutions, the team is increasingly turning its attention to specialized archives, documentary collections, and public libraries, where valuable materials often remain underrepresented online. Throughout August 2026, this broader approach took shape through two complementary initiatives. One focused on Egyptian postal heritage, bringing together volunteers to document and upload historical airmail stamps to Wikimedia Commons. The other focused on books and libraries, combining field visits to branches of the Misr Public Library in Benha and Qena with an online workshop to identify valuable titles, create Wikidata items, and document selected works on Wikimedia Projects. === [[m:Egypt_Wikimedians_User_Group/GLAM/Airmail_Stamps_of_Egypt|Airmail Stamps of Egypt]] === ​From August 12 to 16, the team members gathered online for a workshop dedicated to Egyptian postal heritage, organized by [[m:User:Sohilaali869|Sohila Elshaaer]]. Over five days, participants focused on documenting and uploading historical airmail stamps to Wikimedia Commons. By the end of the workshop, the team added 96 airmail stamps to [[c:Category:Egypt_GLAM_Team_-_Airmail_stamps_of_Egypt|Commons]], fully categorized and available under free licenses. These files help address content gaps in Wikipedia articles related to Philately and Egyptian Postal History. <gallery> STM 1168.jpg|Airmail stamp issued by the United Arab Republic in 1963 (140 millimes) in reddish-orange and violet, depicting the Great Temple of Abu Simbel with an airplane flying overhead.

Nagy]] and [[m:User:أحمد_ناجي|Ahmed Naji]] created book items and uploaded photographic documentation for the selected works. The batch highlighted notable historical and architectural titles, including Khaled Azab's "''Walls and Citadel of Saladin''" (أسوار وقلعة صلاح الدين) and Mohamed Abou El-Ghar's "''The Egyptian Labour Corps''" (الفيلق المصري), alongside political and cultural works by authors such as [[:en:Mohamed_Hassanein_Heikal|Mohamed Hassanein Heikal]] and [[:en:Galal_Amin|Galal Amin]]. In total, Session I resulted in 25 new titles created that previously lacked Wikidata items, along with 35 images and 2 new categories on Wikimedia Commons for the two libraries. <gallery> ورشة كتب ومكتبات (أغسطس 2026) 07.jpg|​A participant's workspace setup during the Books & Libraries Workshop at Misr Public Library in Benha. 1 مكتبة مصر العامة، فرع قنا.jpg|Field visit to Misr Public Library in Qena with a logo of the Egypt Wikimedia during the "Books & Libraries" Workshop. كتاب الفيلق المصري.jpg|Cover of Mohamed Abou El-Ghar's ''The Egyptian Labour Corps'', photographed during a visit to Misr Public Library in Qena. </gallery> === More Info === For more information about GLAM activities in Egypt, visit our page [https://w.wiki/S8MV here]. <br /> <noinclude>{{GLAM/Newsletter/Comments|month=August 2026}}</noinclude> r8q3v7bxg8ykf3w0rkvw0guk4kkcwuz 0 73140 279113 2026-09-07T16:11:29Z IrynaBoiko (WMUA) 51140 Created page with "<noinclude>{{:GLAM/Newsletter/{{subst::GLAM/Newsletter/Newsroom/Next}}/Header}}</noinclude> {{GLAM/Newsletter/Title|OpenGLAM Summer 2026 in Ukraine|By [[User:IrynaBoiko (WMUA)|Iryna Boiko]]}} [[File:Open GLAM in Ukraine offline course 21.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Open GLAM in Ukraine-Training program, June 2026]] Summer 2026 was a particularly productive season for GLAM-related activities in Ukraine.

The project is run in partnership with Wikimedia Sverige and funded by the Swedish Institute The course brought together 23 representatives of Ukrainian archives, museums, and libraries. The course programme included an introduction to Wikipedia and its sister projects, training in Wikipedia editing and article creation, as well as hands-on work with Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata. Over five intensive days of training, participants: * created 58 new Wikipedia articles * edited 179 articles and added 527 references * uploaded 65 files to Wikimedia Commons Most participants had no prior experience working with Wikimedia projects, so the course started with the basics — from exploring the fundamental rules and principles of Wikimedia projects to hands-on work across projects ranging from Wikipedia to Wikidata.
