The current global health emergency forced libraries and museums to organize digital engagement strategies, from #MuseumFromHome to making digital broadcasts. However, this doesn’t mean that copyright laws have been suspended from working. How do we deal with copyright in this public health emergency? What are the important things we need to be looking at when we make our digital engagement strategies? Where can we go to find openly available content from museums and libraries? How do we make sure that we can legally preserve some of the current records being created by these digital engagement strategies?

Plague Water for Everyone! How open-source digital publishing tools can organize and amplify multi-partner research projects
Wednesday, November 6, 2019
Has your museum been circling the idea of digital publishing but remains unsure of how to approach it or which project to feature? Ours was too–until we took the plunge by marrying a promising platform to a complex, multi-partner project that didn't fit our existing publishing channels. The digital publication "Alcohol’s Empire: Distilled Spirits in the 1700s Atlantic World," built using a beta version of the Getty’s Quire publishing tool, was a joint effort of the Minneapolis Institute of Art, the Wangensteen Historical Library at the University of Minnesota, and Minneapolis’ Tattersall Distilling. Created as a stand-alone publication to present academic research, it contains a collection of scholarly essays on the histories of distilled spirits in Europe and the Americas. But it was also conceived as an audience-friendly complement to a museum exhibition and a series of public events, and it includes video documentation of the project plus adaptations of historic drink recipes–like plague water–developed by Tattersall’s head distiller. This presentation provides an inside look at how we created the publication, what roadblocks we encountered, how integrating a digital publishing component helped structure and amplify a research initiative, and what we consider to be the project's return on investment.
