Hello!

A small organizing committee is planning a Wikimedia+Libraries Meetup before IFLA this summer. The meetup will take place in Dublin, Ireland, on the 23^rd and 24^th of July (Saturday and Sunday). Attendance or involvement with IFLA is not required--the Meetup is simply timed to coincide with IFLA for travel purposes. Although the Meetup is not sponsored or coordinated by IFLA, it does have IFLA’s support.

If you know a library staff member who might be interested in this Meetup (hopefully full and partial scholarships will be available) please have them take a moment, before March 27^th, to fill out this “Community Survey”. Once the survey is completed, we will seek funding from the Wikimedia Foundation for the Meetup. Survey Link: https://forms.gle/BLnD4t9QKfBbkY9WA

Please let me, or any of the organizers, know if you have questions.

Thank you, the Wikimedia+Libraries Meetup organizers,

Laurie Bridges (Oregon State University, USA)

Nkem Osuigwe (Wikimedia and Libraries Usergroup; African Library and Information Associations and Institutions)

Núria Ferran (University of Barcelona)

Rebecca O'Neill (Wikimedia Ireland).
