Hello everyone,
Our next biweekly LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group call is Tuesday, May 19th at 9am PDT / 12pm
EDT / 16:00 UTC / 6pm CEST. We’re delighted to have João Alexandre Peschanski talking
about his work leading Wikidata projects with a focus on education in a presentation, “If
Wikidata is the solution… what is the need?” He is the president of Wiki Movimento Brasil,
professor at Faculdade Cásper Líbero and research supervisor at the Research, Innovation
and Dissemination Center for Neuromathematics.
The call details are below. To receive notifications about upcoming calls and meeting
notes you can subscribe to the ld4-wikidata Google

to attend, the meetings are recorded and meeting notes available on Google
Drive<https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JwTulCABs0TkGQDVSnYbIYEb7b…-n>.
The LD4-Wikidata Affinity Group is associated with the Linked Data for Production
project<https://wiki.duraspace.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=10456816…67>. One of
the goals of the project is understanding how libraries can contribute to and better
integrate library metadata with Wikidata to improve access to library resources on the
web. The Affinity Group calls provide an informal space to share information and learn
more about Wikidata.
