Wikipedia Loves Libraries DC will be held on Saturday, November 5, 2011, 1-5pm, at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library (DCPL). Our event takes place during Digital Capital Week. We will be in our Library Lab space at the MLK Jr Library, on the first floor in the Business-Tech division of the library.

There will be something for newbies and experienced Wikimedians alike as we spend an afternoon working on articles and editing Wikipedia:

For newbies, learn how to contribute to Wikipedia Edit-a-thon: Improve Wikipedia content related to local DC history, civil rights, and more

There may also be an opportunity to help digitize photographs of historic Washington, DC and help transcribe and caption videos. Experienced Wikimedians are very much needed to help any newbies that come!

You can signup, as usual, on our Wikipedia meetup page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/DC_25

Cheers, Katie
