Modeling of the institutions in structured data that hold the GLAM objects depicted by files on Wikimedia Commons is mostly done through collection (P195) property and its qualifiers. There are also a few other ways in which institutions may be referenced in structured data.

Modeling institutions in Wikimedia Commons files

Case	equivalent to wikitext "{{institution| wikidata = ...}}"	Example file	Statement	Comment
GLAM image with single institution	{{institution| wikidata = Q59661289}}		collection Barack Obama Presidential Library edit 0 references add reference add value

Other ways institutions are referenced

Case	Example file	Statement	Comment
File uploaded by institution		Commons media contributed by Digital Public Library of America edit object has role aggregator 0 references add reference Denver Public Library edit object has role repository 0 references add reference add value	Use Commons media contributed by (P9126) to indicate when a file is uploaded to Commons by an institution as part of a partnership. You may use the qualifier object has role to distinguish between multiple values, such as when a file is uploaded by an aggregating organization, or when there is data on the specific institutional department (and it has a Wikidata item) in addition to the overarching institution (example values: aggregator, repository, custodial unit).
Institution as "operator" in source statement		source of file file available on the internet edit described at URL http://npg.si.edu/object/npg_NPG.66.54 operator Netherlands Institute for Art History 0 references add reference add value	When using source of file (P7482), if the file comes from the institution's online database, you should include a source statement that includes the institution also as the name of the source using the operator qualifier. See Commons:Structured data/Modeling/Source for more examples.
