In this forum we’ll learn from an expert Wikipedian about how to edit pages, and you’ll dive in and get some hands on practice editing Wikipedia articles. We’ll talk about how libraries can get involved in Wikipedia through events or online initiatives. No previous Wikipedia experience necessary! We'll use the Washingtoniana collections in Gelman Library's Special Collections Research Center as an information base for editing articles on DC history, with special emphasis on DC's LGBT history in celebration of June as LGBT Pride Month.

Did you know that less than 20% of biographies in English-language Wikipedia are about women? The Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum is working to change that and we need you to help share the stories of women who ensured the success of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and leaders in the banking industry who expanded services for women.
