Thanks everyone for the replies (both on and off list) - we've had a great response
which is a wonderful reminder of the generosity of this community. As a review, we are
particularly interested in identifying professional associations that have engaged their
members in education and contribution to any Wikipedia projects.
We are NOT limiting our search to U.S. and Canada, (or to academic/educational
organizations) but hope to find out more about ANY professional organization doing this
type of work (or that has previously done it).
One our first goals is simple - to establish a database of these organizations, with
corresponding information (e.g. name of association, types of activities they have engaged
in related to Wikimedia, any web presence establishing their work, contact person etc.).
To that end, we are sharing the following google spreadsheet.

Please add an organization if you do not see if represented already. Thank you very much
for your interest and help in this endeavor!

AfAIK, WikiEd Foundation is doing a lot of work with
academics, and
specifically with professional associations, so reaching out to LiAnna or
Jami would be best.
Unless you meant outside the US / Canada...?

Hi all -
My colleague Brett and I (cc'd) are interested in exploring
capacity-building among professional associations, for instance, engaging
and encouraging both academic and professional organizations to share
professional expertise / knowledge in Wikipedia.
Does anyone know of existing initiatives already attempting to do this
kind of work (or something similar?? Either at the level of the
individual
professional organization or at a broader level
of trying to bring
together
multiple associations/organizations together to
encourage Wikimedia
engagement.
Feel free to respond off-list or on. Thanks!
