Details

In recognition of Latine/x Heritage Month and International Open Access Week, we are hosting a Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon to update underdeveloped articles or create content related to Latine/x artists! Wikipedia Edit-a-Thons work to close the gap on information related to marginalized communities through collaborative open knowledge creation.

Never edited Wikipedia before? We will teach you how to edit, laptops will be provided and refreshments will be served!

International Open Access Week is an opportunity for the academic and research community to continue to learn about the potential benefits of Open Access, to share what they’ve learned with colleagues, and to help inspire wider participation in helping to make Open Access a new norm in scholarship and research.

Open Access to information – the free, immediate, online access to the results of scholarly research, and the right to use and re-use those results as you need – has the power to transform the way research and scientific inquiry are conducted. It has direct and widespread implications for academia, medicine, science, industry, and for society as a whole.

Open Access Week is an invaluable chance to connect the global momentum toward the open sharing of knowledge with the advancement of policy changes and the importance of social issues affecting people around the world. The event is celebrated by individuals, institutions and organizations around the world. For more information visit https://www.openaccessweek.org/
