It's official! The Chemical Heritage Foundation in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania, has a Wikipedian in Residence...and it's a woman! They told
me it's official, and encouraged me to share the news (it's not online
yet).

This marks, as far as I know, the third woman Wikipedian in Residence in
the US! I'm so pleased. She's active in some great women's history projects
too:

I'm so pleased with this decision! I know she has interested in doing
women's history stuff in relation to chemistry - so yay, more work for
WikiProject Women scientists :) I'm hoping I can get her to join this list!
