Hello all, We, at the National Library of Israel, have a few questions regarding the upcoming campaign:
1. Can contributions to other Wikimedia projects such as Wikidata and Wikicommons be considered as part of the campaign, can they be tagged #1lib1ref? 2. Which contributions to Wikipedia can count? For example, adding an image to an article, further reading, external links, article editing? 3. Are there any new statistics tools or dashboard developments that can be helpful for organizers? We saw two new additions to the dashboard: ORES and Campaign Alerts. It will be helpful if we provide the organizers some explanations and implications of this additions. 4. Is it necessary to create new program under the 2020 campaign, or can we use the 2019 program and add the #1Lib1Ref January 2020 tag. We would love to hear your thoughts. Thank you.

Librarians and library lovers, From January 15th to February 5th we will be joining together around the world to make Wikipedia more reliable. You can participate in #1Lib1Ref by simply adding a citation to Wikipedia's content! That's all we ask and imagine: a world in which every librarian (or archivist, reference professional, and scholar) adds 1 more reference to Wikipedia. This is the fifth year of the #1Lib1Ref campaign and we couldn’t be more excited to support another year of activities. Full resources and guides for participating are available on the campaign website<http://1lib1ref.org> (http://1lib1ref.org). If you are planning to host a coffee hour<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/The_Wikipedia_Library/1Lib1Ref/Coffee_Kit> or a edit-a-thon focused on #1Lib1Ref, and you need funding for the event, you will be able to apply for a Rapid Grant<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Project/Rapid>. For the best chance of approval, requests should be made in the month of November, since requests related to #1Lib1Ref will be given priority by the Grants team during November. You can make sure your contribution is counted by using the Program and Events Dashboard for your event, institution, or region, and using the #1Lib1Ref hashtag in your edit summary. Login to start a new event or join an existing one for the January campaign here: https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/campaigns/1lib1ref_january_2020/overview Please tell your library and library-loving friends about #1Lib1Ref in January.
