I am a librarian in training and a participant in the reading Wikipedia in
the classroom program for teachers 2021 Cohort. I may not have the
practical experience yet but I think some of the points identified below
will assist you.

How does it benefit your work?

As a librarian and wikimedian in elementary schools, it will benefit my
work by promoting my research skills to summarise and synthesize
information for information seekers; provide excellent opportunities for me
to up-skill and advance my knowledge of information repackaging and
delivery and also help to incorporate digital technologies and E-learning
into my librarianship experience.

What is a good resource to check for working on open content with these
target groups?
