All,
The University of Edinburgh has today started advertising for a part time Wikimedian in Residence post:
http://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/AMB999/wikimedian-in-residence-fixed-term-part-tim...
To quote from it directly:
Do you have an eye for detail and a love of facts? Are you an experienced
Wikimedian with experience working with the Wikimedia community? What
would
you do to engage our staff and students in editing, contributing and sharing open knowledge? We are recruiting a Wikimedian in Residence to
work
in Information Services alongside our learning technologists, archivists, librarians and information literacy teams. Following our first successful editathon events we now need your help to establish a network of Wikimedians on campus and to embed digital skills and open knowledge activities in learning and teaching across the University.
Good luck to those who apply - any questions will have to go to the University directly, as they're running the recruitment process themselves.
All the best,
Richard Symonds Wikimedia UK 0207 065 0992

Just to say that I've been doing a bit of work with the uni of Edinburgh over the past couple of months in my role as WiR at Museums Galleries Scotland, & they've been lovely, & very keen!
Best, Sara Thomas User:lirazelf
