edit

Monday, October 21, 2013 Austin, TX Perry-Castañeda Library (PCL), Room 1.124

Our event is designed to introduce new Wikipedians to the basics of contributing to one of the largest open educational resources in the world. We'll provide a brief overview of editing existing entries and creating new entries. We'll then be available to support you in making edits that you'd like to contribute.

The three librarians facilitating are somewhat experienced editors who can get you started and will be especially helpful as you track down references Our expertise is problem solving and we'll use the available documentation in Wikipedia to answer many of your questions. We expect others in the room have valuable experience to contribute as well and hope you'll support each other, too.
