Hey All,
As part of The Wikipedia Library (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:The_Wikipedia_Library), we have
recently been developing another sets of documentation for Library-related
outreach:
We are calling the project Wikipedia Library Interns. In the U.S. there has
been a significant number of published case studies describing student
hires or student interns editing Wikipedia for the library that employs
them. We created a page that combines the motivation for that kind of
editing, increased website traffic and visibility, with the experience of
the Education Program and GLAM-Wiki movement. We also created a course page
with the Education plugin to monitor those interns. I am currently in the
process of trying to find some libraries interested in working with student
interns. For more information see:

Feedback or ideas about who would be interested in these program would be
great!
