While the collections libraries, archives, and museums (LAMs) manage remain necessarily fragmented in the real world, potential users of these collections increasingly expect to experience the world of information as accessible from a single search online. The groundwork for success in a networked environment is laid in local collaborations, such as creating cohesiveness among LAMs belonging to the same organization. This article introduces the LAM workshops held by RLG Programs at the University of Edinburgh, Princeton University, the Smithsonian Institution, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and Yale University, and presents the lessons abstracted from these day-long events. It suggests strategies to spur local as well as global collaborative activities in the areas of search and terminologies
