Hi everyone,
As a chapter we have run the Wikimedian in Residence (WIR) programme since May 2012, when Andrew Gray started his residency at the British Library.
We have now agreed to reflect on the programme's successes and challenges through a review. The WIR programme has been seen as one of the key ways we can engage with external organisations, extending our scale of activities and outreach. These residencies are often a considerable investment for WMUK (£2-8K) and need to deliver a meaningful impact.
We would like to see what the UK community thinks of the programme so far - you are now invited to take part in the surveyhttps://www.surveymonkey.com/s/MKMJCVRthat will form the first part of the review. Your answers will be an important element of influencing the future of the programme.
If you are not based in the UK, you are still welcome to comment - we are very interested in what our community thinks of the programme.
The deadline for responding is *24 March. *
Thank you! Richard Nevell
