Hi,
I know this is a little like reply-all-ing, but I can’t figure out to create an account— all IP addresses available to me are blocked, including IP address of my home service without a VPN. Can anyone help me sign up.
Thanks,

Greetings All,
We are happy to announce that the CIS-A2K team have been initiated to
develop the Wikisource Android apps for Wikisource reader. Over the last
couple of months, a group of devs from the Tamil language community have
been putting together an Android Wikisource App for us. They have been
finished their POC of the app. In the coming month, we will engage some
developers to develop iOS apps for the same. We think it's finally gotten
to a good state for people to start hacking on it.
For those just wanting to get started here are the links Initial code:

In the coming month, we may help to do the following ... * Fork the code
and help us with open bug requests * Critique the code and suggest a
cleanup * Start to hack on new features UI. * Localization for the user
interface
Also, you may comment/suggest/feedback our meta talk page

Subject: The Wikipedia Library: Search feature now available!
Hi,
The Wikipedia Library team is excited to announce that a centralized
search tool is now available to all users eligible to use the library!
Instead of needing to search across individual collections one-by-one,
you’ll now be able to search content from across a wide range of
collections from one search bar. This search tool uses the EBSCO
Discovery Service software and contains a wide array of filtering and
advanced search options.
To check which collections are indexed, we’ve also added icons and
filters to My Library. Search pulls content from almost all of the
collections which are accessible by default for eligible users (the
Library Bundle). This means you can search with the confidence that
every result will be accessible to you. In the future, we plan to enable
users to turn off this limit, so that you could also search across
collections which require individual applications, but we can’t
guarantee that you’ll be able to access all results in this mode, as
this depends on your individual authorizations.
To check out the search tool just head over to
https://wikipedialibrary.wmflabs.org/, log in, and you’ll find the
search bar at the top of your screen.
We hope you find this feature useful, and would love to hear your
feedback at
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Library_Card_platform/Search.
Finally, as a reminder, we’re planning to start rolling out an on-wiki
notification to editors who are eligible to use the library in the near
future. Users will only receive the notification once. Please check
https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:MessageGroupStats&group=ext…
to see if you can help translate the notification text!
Thanks,
The Wikipedia Library team
