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: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/Bookshelf Phoebe Ayer is talking about doing a one-page share, and special shout out to Jessamyn West for giving the 1lib1ref page a facelift: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref We look forward to whichever communications materials you develop.
