Once more with feeling: Relevant tech skills for GLAMR workers
summary
Argues that GLAMR staff can gain practical skills—command line, Python/R, scripting, version control and automation—to reduce reliance on proprietary tools and make collections FAIR. Describes using Library Carpentry lessons (CC BY) and a certified instructor pipeline, shows a live GitHub workflow: open repository for a FAIR Data 101 course, edit markdown, fork a repo and submit a pull request, and successfully create a PR. Claims these steps cut tedium, improve reproducibility and enable collaborative curation.
