The #1Lib1Ref campaign is BACK! Following the January 2021 campaign, Wikimedia Canada invites you to participate in the May 2021 competition running from 15 May 2021 to 5 June 2021. Imagine a world where each librarian added at least one reference to an article in Wikipedia... together, we can contribute to the reliability and credibility of humanity's most consulted source of information!' How to participate? If your instituion has not already created a dashboard (list of dashboards here), follow these simple steps: Create a Dashbaord for your institution Link your dashboard to these campaigns Add you participants to your Dashboard More detailed instructions below. Need Inspiration? To find articles that need citations use the Citation Hunt tool. Event Dashboard Instructions In order to compile the contributions of each institution in the friendly competition, Wikimedia Canada uses the Wikimedia Dasboard. For May 2021's campaign, we ask you create a dashboard for your institution (library, archive, class, museum, gallery, etc.). A Wikipedia account is required to create and manage an institutional event dashboard.
