Hello everyone, I attended the monthly Education meeting, which are held
the last Monday of every month, between 16:30-18:00 UTC.(you can find out
more here

I encourage you to check out what is going on in the Education space since
it is library-adjacent.
A focus of the meeting was on the Program and Events dashboard
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Programs_%26_Events_Dashboard> which I
know a lot of you use. The Education group has a Technical Infrastructure
Group that you can join if you want to give feedback to dashboard and other
technical things that are needed in scaling out teaching, you should get
involved!

Some other items that came up that I thought were interesting:

There are a number of efforts that pertain to #1lib1ref, including the
hashtag tool that was shared here earlier. One of those relates to the
dashboard, so #1lib1ref fans may be interested.

Group for hosting!
