Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media. A landscape of Arts and Culture. Sammu. Sammu (Synchronized Automatic Media and Metadata Uploader) is a tool designed to help museums, archives, and libraries merge their collection metadata with their assets in a standardised way for uploading to the photo-sharing website Flickr.
Future releases may also upload to YouTube and other social media sharing sites. Up until now, a major limitation of using Flickr for collection access has been merging metadata from collections management systems and porting that information into Flickr's Description, Title, Location, Date and Tag fields. Sammu is designed to facilitate that merging. For example: gets turned into. Indianapolis Museum of Art.
