Seeking responses to Chapter Finances Survey to aid Funds Dissemination Process

Dear Chapter Leaders,

My name is Divya Narayanan and I am part of the team at The Bridgespan Group working with Wikimedia to design
the Funds Dissemination Committee. We are currently working to define a process for the allocation of
movement funds across the community.

We would appreciate your help in answering some questions about your chapter finances today and your
thoughts on the future funds dissemination process. This information is essential to help design the FDC
so that it can provide for the Wikimedia movements' current and future funding needs.

These questions can be found and answered on: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Funds_Dissemination_Committee/Chapter_Finances_Survey.

We would like all chapters to respond, regardless of budget, so we have a strong understanding of the
current state and expectations for the coming financial year.

We need your input by Friday, May 25th, so that it can be considered by the Funds Dissemination Committee
Advisory Group and can be used to develop recommendations for the Wikimedia Board of Trustees.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to me or to Asaf
Bartov<mailto:abartov <at> wikimedia.org> at the Foundation.

Many thanks,

Divya

Fwd: Harvard Library releases 12M bibliographic records under CC0

This is big news -- though still only part of Harvard's full
collection of records.

Following the British Library's release of 3M bib records under CC0 18
months ago:

Stopping the presses: Britannica to stop printing books

2010's 32-volume set will be its last.  (Now I want to get one, to
replace my old set!)  Future versions will be digital only.

http://mediadecoder.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/03/13/after-244-years-encyclopaedia-britannica-stops-the-presses/?smid=tw-nytimes&seid=auto
http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2012/mar/13/encyclopedia-britannica-halts-print-publication

Britannica president Jorge Cauz notes that their revenue from the
online encyclopedia was already 15x that of the print version -- 15%
of their total, compared to 1%.  Most of their revenue for years has
come from other targeted educational materials.  As he says in the
Guardian,

"Today our digital database is much larger than what we can fit in the
print set. And it is up to date because we can revise it within
minutes anytime we need to, and we do it many times each day."
