Hello, all.

On behalf of the IFLA Wikidata Working Group I’m very pleased to announce the release of a series of videos (with translations into French, Spanish, Portuguese, and with Chinese and Arabic to be added shortly.)

 

Big thanks to all our presenters: Jason Evans, Simon Cobb, Barbara Fischer, Sarah Hartmann, Nicolas Vigneron, Ahava Cohen, Megan Wacha, and Karim Tharani. 

 

And thank you to the Wikicite project for supporting our shift from the planned in-person meeting at the IFLA conference in Dublin in August 2020 to this online format.

 

Best.

Stacy

Our Wikicite Discussion Series - generously supported by the Wikimedia Foundation and the IFLA Wikidata Working Group - is now online! 


Across six sessions, we explore language revitalisation, knowledge equity, open access to scholarly publications, linking and visualising bibliographic data, the global wiki community, and much more!
