Hello all,
I'm keen to organize a satellite event at Langara. Like Debra, I'd like to attend
another institution's Edit-athon if we can't drum up enough interest here.
I've also asked our new Science librarian, Corrie Playford, if she'd be interested
in participating.
All the best,
Lindsay

Subject: [Bcoelsteering] Join the Wikiedithon for Science Literacy Week Sept.18 -24?
Hi all,
A number of institutions are planning a Wikiedithon this September and Katherine
Miller(UBC) Will Engle (UBC) and Lucas Wright (BCcampus)have the planning underway.
Here's a link to last year's advertising UBC's event last year -
http://guides.library.ubc.ca/scilit16/wiki
The idea would be that those who want to participate , there will be an opportunity to
watch a webinar (although not necessarily needed) and they register for a wiki account.
BCcampus will be providing pizza for each institution
This is the beginning of the planning and a dashboard has just gone up with some initial
information
https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/BC/Science_Literacy_Week_BC_E…
BCIT, KPU and SFU are also participating. Douglas is listed but I have as yet to solicit
interest here. I want to participate personally so I will go to another institution's
Wikiedithon if one doesn't pan out here.
Let us know if you would like to participate, either individually or institutionally.
Katherine and Lucas are part of this listserv and I've added Will to this email as
well in case you have any questions for them.
Debra,
Debra Flewelling
