Hi all,

This is to let you know about a couple of events at the British Library; on the 10th of September, we'll be hosting a workshop and exhibition tour.

As with the original editathon back in January 2011, it should provide a good opportunity to meet curators, talk about possible collaborations, etc. If all goes to plan, we'll also have a group of newly released digital collections to work on, ready for sorting and uploading - details TBC. My work as Wikipedian in Residence has been heavily built around the training program in the last couple of months, and I'm hoping to be able to put more emphasis into content work from now on. If there's things you'd like me to try and work on later in the residency, or if you just want to chat about what's been done so far, please come along!

In the evening, there is a tour arranged of the Writing Britain exhibition - this will start at 6.30 and be led by two of the curators organising the exhibition. Hopefully, it should be suitable for anyone working during the day and not able to make the afternoon session. I know it's a little unusual to hold an event on a weekday rather than a weekend, but this was the only day we could bring everything together!

Later in the week, in the morning of Thursday 13th, John Byrne has arranged a tour of the British Museum's ''Writing Shakespeare'' exhibition - signup details below.

Please let me know if you've any questions, and hope to see you there!
