Summary/Abstract: The University Library “Svetozar Marković” in Belgrade, as one of the leading scientific institutions in Serbia, has a standing, four-year long cooperation with Wikimedia Serbia and, as a result, we have a joint project called Wiki Librarian. The initial idea was to establish cooperation with libraries across Serbia, and later it was expanded to also include other GLAM institutions. The main goal of the project is to shift (enlist) as many cultural institutions online. As the largest online, encyclopedia in the world, Wikipedia serves as the main platform to achieve this goal. The Wikipedia articles are continuously being updated by adding or editing text or photos. On Wikimedia Commons platform, one can post photos and other multimedia content with strict adherence to the copyrights and rules, so essentially everyone has an undisturbed access at any time. A number of articles about libraries in Serbia, the region and the wider have been posted, which enabled them to learn more about them and to emerge from the shadow of anonymity.
