Hi all, As many of you know, as part of my work at the British Library I'll be organizing a series of training workshops on behalf of AHRC for postgraduates and academics, at various institutions around the country. These are mostly half-day sessions, giving training to specialists who are interested in contributing to Wikipedia or other Wikimedia projects, or learning more about engaging and collaborating with the Wikimedia community - I'm modelling them on the past sessions run by WMUK with, eg, the Institute of Physics.

Alternatively, if you have contacts who you think might be interested in hosting one at their institution, I'd be really interested to hear about it - part of the trick with setting these up is finding the right person to approach!
