I am excited to announce that the Chemical
Heritage Foundation[1]—a
non-profit repository in Philadelphia, USA with collections relating to
the
history and heritage of chemistry, chemical
engineering, and related
sciences and technologies—is seeking an experienced Wikipedian to serve
as
their Wikipedian in Residence[2]. The Wikipedian
in Residence will work
as a
community coordinator and strengthen the
relationship between CHF and the
Wikipedian community through a range of activities, similar to past
GLAM-Wiki[3] residencies. This is a full-time, temporary position with a
small stipend with an immediate opening.
The Wikipedian in Residence's potential activities includes organizing
on-site events for the local Wikipedian community, adding digital content
from CHF's holdings to Wikimedia Commons and Wikisource, encouraging
increased content or quality of Wikipedia articles using CHF resources,
teaching Wikipedia skills to the CHF staff or researcher community, and
documenting their experiences in blogs, social media, or elsewhere.

.
Questions relating to the position can be sent to Jeffery Guin, Manager
of
Emerging Media, at
<jguin(a)chemheritage.org>rg>, or to me if they are
general
queries about Wikipedians in Residence or
GLAM-Wiki. Please forward this
message to other lists or or contacts you think would be interested.
Thanks!
