Triple Alliance
Content - Release existing, create new, target gaps, assist smaller heritage units, UGC
Discover & Disseminate - open standards, open licences, facilitate linking, cross-searching
Engagement - open educational resources, online tools and social media events, real-life events

Are we missing anything? Key themes or messages?
How can we help others to contribute (smaller heritage centres and the public)?
How will we engage all sectors in this, and make it useful for them?
Yes: official documents, printed ephemera, medical material (beyond shell-
shock), naval material, etcShared services and
infrastructure, DIY kits/best practice, engagement/UGC
activities
Not just history researchers

QuestionsDoes the JISC White Paper have any value for other organisations?
What could or should funders do?
How can projects not become short-lived silos?
What are the gaps in planned WW1 content provision?
Which audiences need further opportunities for engagement? How can this be delivered?
Are there unique examples of innovation which can be shared between organisations?
How could we engage ‘difficult to reach’ international partners (African states, India, Pakistan etc)?
