This category is for the ever-increasing number of people are exploring the possibilities of applying IPFS to the work of Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums (“GLAM”). On a couple of different occasions (like [this github issue](https://github.com/ipfs/community/issues/224) and [this twitter discussion](https://twitter.com/ennomeijers/status/852561763052793856)) people have expressed interest in creating a place for these explorers, creators, inventors and enthusiasts to find each other and exchange ideas, solutions, excitement, doubts, XML, etc. We hope that this space within [discuss.ipfs.io](http://discuss.ipfs.tech) will work as a platform for those connections and discussions to happen.
