Subject: [GLAM-US] New user tutorial for GLAM professionals

Hi all,

I just wanted to point out a presentation I created for training new editors at an event the Smithsonian hosted last Friday, “Wikipedia Loves Libraries: Backstage at the Smithsonian Libraries.”

PDF on Commons:  http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Introduction-to-Editing-Wikipedia-for-GLAM-professionals.pdf

I find that a lot of the existing tutorials are very text heavy, but this one includes lots of screenshots and visuals.   Please feel free to link to it, improve it, and add it to the various lists of GLAM resources.

Best,

Sara
