New subject: Wikipedia Library Reference (#1Lib1Ref) drive for Wikipedia 15

7 Jan 2016


      Hello --
Would you have extra 1Lib1Ref stickers we could share at the upcoming Wikimedia NYC Wikipedia 15 Day that is being held at NYU's Tisch with their Interactive Telecommunications Program department on Saturday January 16, 2016? We should have a nice turnout and it would be great to support #1Lib1Ref! I can send my address or pick them up if it's local.

I have the stickers that Jake kindly had made, and they will be available at the OCLC and National Library of Medicine booths in the exhibit hall, and I expect to also recruit people I know to help me distribute them more widely. Merrilee also gave me a slug of badge ribbons that she made that say "I edit Wikipedia". So I think I'm fairly well equipped for Boston. Thanks,
Roy

I am a bit behind on this- vacation.  Merrilee, do you need some help with
distribution of stickers?  Do we want to schedule time on Friday or Monday
to meet and maybe edit?  I have a spare Wikipedia shirt hanging around and
am happy to bring it to give to someone.
Side note, when it comes to library conferences, badge ribbons are a hot
commodity.  I would encourage that a bunch be made for future conferences.
All they need to say is ŒWikipedian¹ and include a spot for people to
write in their username.  They can be picked up at booth.  I think
librarians are a bit more ravenous about ribbons than tech people (who I
noticed prefer stickers).

I love the idea.  We would need to do some quick turnaround with a
sticker logo.  Given the timeframe, could I have them shipped directly
to you or Merrilee?  Jake

Thats a great idea! The Wikipedia 15 page has plenty of information on
creating local swag to celebrate Wikipedia 15 :
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_15 Moreover, at the Wikipedia
Library, we created a bookshelf of outreach tools we have used in the
past: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/Bookshelf
Phoebe Ayer is talking about doing a one-page share, and special shout
out to Jessamyn West for giving the 1lib1ref page a facelift:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref We look
forward to whichever communications materials you develop. Cheers,
