Hello, all—

I’m posting this on Vika’s behalf – I’m running into a few glitches getting her access to the list restored. Details on CrowdCafe events below.

Subject: Invitation: CrowdCafe 1Lib1Ref Edition — Jan. 18th

Dear colleagues,

This winter and spring, BU Libraries' Digital Scholarship Services group and BC Libraries' Digital Scholarship group continue to hold our monthly Crowd Cafe event<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jcN2y1U9bpDlcSiBYkLT5VydZTHcC_OibCfJ6JsJ0F0/edit>, in which participants are invited to contribute to crowdsourced projects of their choosing in a supportive environment, in person or online via a Zoom meeting.

We are dedicating our next event, to be held on January 18th, to Wikimedia Foundation's 1Lib1Ref<https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref> event. "Imagine," they say, "a World where Every Librarian Added One More Reference to Wikipedia." And we say, why limit this to librarians?

Please join us 1-3pm on Friday January 18th, at BU or at BC or online (details here<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jcN2y1U9bpDlcSiBYkLT5VydZTHcC_OibCfJ6JsJ0F0/edit#heading=h.4v4mz6s71k42>), to contribute a reference to Wikipedia — or to work on a different crowdsourcing project. If you don't know how to contribute, we'll help. Bring a laptop and a willingness to spend some time improving the worldwide cultural record.

We hope to see you there!

All best,
-Vika Zafrin for the Crowd Cafe team

P. S. We will also be getting together on February 15th, March 15th, April 19th, and May 17th.
