Hilary,
this is wonderful — I have a conflict on that date but we'll make sure to circulate the announcement on social. Cross-posting on the main wikidata mailing list, I bet many community members would be interested in participating.
Best, Dario

Hello all,
I'm a new Wikimedian in Residence as part of the Linked Data for Production project https://wiki.duraspace.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=104568167. One of the goals of the project is understanding how libraries can contribute to and leverage Wikidata as a platform for publishing, linking, and enriching library linked data. A number of institutions that are part of the grant are working on projects involving Wikidata and we decided to start an interest group with biweekly meetings to discuss various aspects of Wikidata in support of the projects. Possible topics include Wikidata best practices, documentation, communication channels, policies, and tools.
At each meeting, myself or a guest will present some relevant material related to the topic and we’ll discuss any issues members have encountered as well as helpful resources. At the first meeting on April 23rd, we’ll talk about the purpose and goals of the group as well as the Wikidata related projects that are part of the grant.
I'd like to invite any interested Wikicite community members to join us. The call details and communication channels are below.
