Dear members of the African Community,
The Wikipedia Library (TWL) is starting a usergroup and we ask that members
of the African community who are interested in knowing more or contributing
to the usergroup, signup on the meta page
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Library_User_Group>.[1] We
encourage you to share this with people you know may be interested and
librarians around you.
In view of this we are documenting all existing partnerships with Libraries
globally. Tell us what partnerships you have currently built and how you
are exploring such partnerships. We are willing to help you explore other
ways of using such partnerships and even build activities around your work
with them. You can privately email me the details of your current
partnership(s) with any library in your country by providing the following
details *(name of institution, country, affiliate/group, presence of a
Wikipedian in Residence (WIR), contact of library, email of library)*
I am happy to assist current TWL coordinators who need assistance with
their duties and ready to support existing TWL branches on the continent.
It will be great to help any country who wishes to start a TWL branch in
their country and please don't hesitate to contact me on any issues
concerning TWL.
You can also join our activities or follow us on social media to be updated
on all that is happening in the world of Wikipedia + Libraries via:
- Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/groups/WikiLibrary/> [2]
- Twitter <https://twitter.com/WikiLibrary> [3]
Warm regards,
