Yes, some time ago, I had some badge ribbon made up some time ago -- here's a PDF if
anyone ever wants to have more printed (I used Marco to do the printing but any decent
shop could do it). Sara is right these are hot commodities at librarian conferences.

I have the stickers that Jake kindly had made, and they will be available at the OCLC and
National Library of Medicine booths in the exhibit hall, and I expect to also recruit
people I know to help me distribute them more widely. Merrilee also gave me a slug of
badge ribbons that she made that say "I edit Wikipedia". So I think I'm
fairly well equipped for Boston. Thanks, Roy

I am a bit behind on this- vacation. Merrilee, do you need some help
with distribution of stickers? Do we want to schedule time on Friday
or Monday to meet and maybe edit? I have a spare Wikipedia shirt
hanging around and am happy to bring it to give to someone.
Side note, when it comes to library conferences, badge ribbons are a
hot commodity. I would encourage that a bunch be made for future conferences.
All they need to say is ŒWikipedian¹ and include a spot for people to
write in their username. They can be picked up at booth. I think
librarians are a bit more ravenous about ribbons than tech people (who
I noticed prefer stickers).

I love the idea. We would need to do some quick
turnaround with a
sticker logo. Given the timeframe, could I have them shipped
directly to you or Merrilee? Jake
Thats a great idea! The Wikipedia 15 page has
plenty of information
on creating local swag to celebrate Wikipedia 15 :
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_15 Moreover, at the
Wikipedia Library, we created a bookshelf of outreach tools we have
used in the
past:

Phoebe Ayer is talking about doing a one-page share, and special
shout out to Jessamyn West for giving the 1lib1ref page a facelift:

look forward to whichever communications materials you develop.
