Wednesday 20th Jan at 1 pm.

Not only is it Wikipedia's 20th birthday on 15th January, but that date also sees the start of the campaign which runs from 15th Jan to 5th Feb. The campaign challenges librarians across the world to add at least one reference to where a citation is needed.
What better way to celebrate Wikipedia's birthday than to give it a gift of citations?

We are holding a virtual coffee hour on Wednesday 20 January 2021 at 13:00 so please join us. This session is open to newcomers and for those "old hands" who are wanting a refresher.

We will talk about the campaign, talk about citations and sources and show you how to add a good solid reference to where a citation is missing.

Details on how to join the Zoom session will be sent to you between 12 and 24 hours before the event.
