Hoi, You do not set out to "educate" the UK National Portrait Gallery or any other "hydra head". What you do is you engage GLAM and it helps when there is a damn good introduction into the subject of copyright and licensing. At the same time you have to engage in educating people why GLAMs are important. Why they are essential to our culture and our projects. There is a need for funding the conservation of our cultural heritage. It costs money one way or the other. In my opinion there is a need for community and government support and funding.
As long as you consider them the enemy, you are losing battles for hearts and minds. It is only when we appreciate the other side of the story that we may end the "war" and find ourselves a constructive peace.
