The UVA library is hosting "Introduction to Wikimedia projects", a private event for library staff in Clemons room 407. Join UVA's own staff Wikipedia editor, Lane Rasberry, for a presentation on Wikipedia, Wikidata, Wikimedia projects, and the ecology of nonprofit media and communication. Wikipedia has been a highly popular source of information for a generation and continues to influence thought in all fields. Enjoy the presentation and feel free to ask any questions you have ever had about the encyclopedia.
