Event Details
This event will take place in the Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America (3 James Street) at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study. Refreshments will be provided. Free and open to the public.
No previous experience writing Wikipedia entries is necessary. Wikipedia experts and research librarians from Harvard libraries, including the Schlesinger, will be available to help you write and edit your entries. A list of possible subjects, printed reference materials, and online resources will be provided to support the work. New ideas and resources are also welcome. If you cannot join us in person, you can also participate remotely. A behind-the-scenes tour of the Schlesinger Library will be open to those attending the edit-a-thon.
This event is part of the Radcliffe Institute's conference Game Changers: Sports, Gender, and Society.
