*Academia and Wikipedia: Critical Perspectives in Education and Research*

Maynooth, 18 June 2018. The call for papers is currently open, and will

*#1lib1ref*
#1lib1ref (one librarian, one reference) is an international initiative to
encourage librarians and information professionals to improve Wikipedia by
adding just one citation. It runs from 15 January to 3 February 2018, and
more details can be found here
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref>. If you
have any questions about this, or want to get your library involved, do get
in touch!
*Art+Feminism*
Art+Feminism will be returning in March 2018. Last year Ireland held one
event in Galway, and this year we aim to build on that. Are you interested
in helping hosting an event, or have a suggestion on how Ireland could
contribute to this worldwide event? Get in touch with us! More details on
the international campaign are on the main website here
