**Wanted: Drupal Module Developer
For Free/Open Source Citizen Archivist Drupal game module**
**## Description ##**
In collaboration between the University of Edinburgh's Library Labs and
Tiltfactor at Dartmouth College, we are designing a Drupal module that allows
users to play a tagging game on an institution's website. The Metadata Games
Module will select game images via the institution's repository software API
(DSpace/Fedora/LUNA software). Data submitted by players will be stored on the
Institution website and later exported/downloaded in .csv or .json formats.
The open-source game is designed for altruism-motivated players whose game
experience ranges between 'zero experience' and 'some experience in the past,
but no recent experience.' Gameplay is short, ideal for casual gameplay during
work/study breaks or something to past time. We are looking for potential
developers and early adopters, if you are interested please let us know!
