Hi all,
In case anyone’s local to Durham and/or Chapel Hill, the libraries at Duke University and the University of North Carolina are hosting a series of seven edit-a-thons in March and April: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/UNC

Also, a group of us have fielded questions from local librarians and archivists about how to organize an edit-a-thon so we created a planning toolkit: http://www.ncarchivists.org/editathon-toolkit/
Cheers, Emily
