Wikipedia Loves Libraries is a wiki-coordinated program of distributed
micro-conferences (editathons) to be held at libraries and archives in
cities across North America around *October 2011*.

The advantages of the Wikipedia Loves Libraries model:
- Easy to organize, even at small public libraries
- Welcoming to everyone, Wikipedians, Librarians, and all library patrons
- It's "the living reference section"
- Also, it's fun!
Is there any interest in meeting up for this event in the Metro Atlanta
area? We have a month to plan this event. October 22 is a tentative date.
Best regards,
Ganesh
