Spring 2023 #citeNLM Wiki Edit-a-thon

Posted in: #CC/Academic List, #Health Interest List, #Health Sciences List, #Public/K-12 List, All Members


The Network of the National Library of Medicine is excited to announce its #citeNLM Wikipedia Edit-a-thon campaign for Spring 2023! Join us in our campaign to improve health information on Wikipedia using NLM and other quality health information resources.

There are lots of ways to #citeNLM and get involved:

Join our Edit-a-thon Live Session. Participate in our #citeNLM Edit-a-thon throughout all of spring 2023, where we will focus on editing Wikipedia health articles. Want to edit with others? Join our live editing session on March 24th, 2-4p ET! We’ll overview basic Wikipedia editing tools and work with colleagues to improve mental health-related articles. CHIS CE available. Sign up today: https://www.nnlm.gov/training/class/citenlm-spring-2023-edit-thon

Take a course on Wikipedia and Libraries. Want an in-depth exploration of how libraries can use Wikipedia as an information literacy and engagement tool? Join our free, asynchronous course: Wikipedia + Libraries. The course will run from February 20 to March 17, 2023 and guides students through the curation and editing process of Wikipedia health articles, as well as how to help community members build their health literacy skills online. CHIS CE available. Sign up today: https://www.nnlm.gov/training/class/wikipedia-libraries-nnlm-feb-mar-2023

We are excited to host another #citeNLM campaign to improve one of the world’s most widely used resources for consumer health information. We look forward to seeing you at one of our many events this spring!
