Good afternoon and happy Tuesday,
At Wiki Education we're continuing to serve our community during the COVID-19 pandemic. We know you're likely adjusting to a new routine of working from home and may be looking for virtual projects and networking opportunities, especially after upcoming conferences may have been cancelled. With our tried and tested online training infrastructure, we truly believe we can offer you and your colleagues an online project with real institutional impact that complements your new work environment.
April 15 - May 20, 2020 | Elevate your Collectionhttps://tracking.cirrusinsight.com/27d51d7d-761a-4769-a571-dc4a144b6db9/wikiedu-org-wikidata-intermediate-course | Wednesdays at 9am PST
Do Global Outlook:Digital Humanities members have a special collection or focus you wish the world knew more about? By sharing related institutional data on Wikidata, the open data repository behind Wikipedia, you can use your institution’s unique identifier to bring exposure to your data, drive traffic to your website, and situate your institution as a leader with that collection. With online meetings once a week via Zoom, Elevate your Collection will give you one-on-one coaching from our Wikidata experts, the chance to conceptualize online projects for your institution, and a network of your peers cheering you on.
