Hello everyone,
We have our next LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group Call on Tuesday, May 31, 2022 at 9am PT /
12pm ET / 16:00 UTC / 6pm CEST (Time zone
converter<https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1654012858>)8>). Felicia Smith, Nicole
Coleman, and Akosua Kissi (Stanford Libraries) will be sharing a project in development
called Know Systemic Racism (
KSR)<https://ksr.stanford.edu/>u/>. It helps users
discover factual data about systems shaped by racist policies and take action against them
by connecting them with groups that address systemic racism. They are working on
incorporating Wikidata into their project and will share this work in progress with us and
are looking for feedback and advice on their process and schema. We hope you will join us
to learn more about the project, especially if you have experience incorporating Wikidata
into your own projects or are hoping to learn how to.
The call details are below. Everyone is welcome to attend. If you aren't able to
attend, the meetings are recorded and meeting notes are available on Google
Drive<https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JwTulCABs0TkGQDVSnYbIYEb7b…-n>. To
receive notifications about upcoming calls and meeting notes you can subscribe to the
ld4-wikidata Google
Group<https://groups.google.com/d/forum/ld4-wikidata>ta>.
The LD4 Wikidata Affinity Group is associated with the LD4 Community and investigates 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.
