I have been 'cultivating' good contacts with my local library staff (as
all on-list should know, this is a smart move).
Based on that, I would like to move on to developing a Wikinews
reporters' workshop programme. The UK is fairly well represented in WN's
small contributor base, and I believe I can tease some free sessions in
one of Edinburgh's libraries to run a 3-4 x 3 hour workshop session to
turn interested parties into effective citizen journalists.
There would be a need to fund printed material; fliers, workbooks,
reading lists &c. I'd like to know I'd some backing to do this. Then,
approach the library, see about bloc booking their computer facilities,
and doing the whole thing as cheaply as possible.
Thoughts? Constructive criticism? What, such as editing tips, can I
reuse?
