Hi All,
The Center for Jewish History is hosting their first Wikipedia
Edit-a-Thon on Sunday May 4th from 12pm-5pm (5 hours) at their
location on 16th Street in Manhattan near Union Square. The theme of
the Edit-a-Thon is “Women in Jewish History.” Some of the articles to edit
include: Celia Adler, Jennie Loitman
Barron, and Lotte
Jacobi.
If you plan on
attending, please bring a laptop as they will not have any on hand. Light
refreshments will be provided as well as access to their library and other
great resources and staff knowledge! Upon entrance of the building, you will be directed to the room where the Edit-a-Thon is held at the front desk.
Please see the event page for more details: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/WomeninJewishHistory
Hope to see you there!
