[Samantha Weald]

Add your knowledge and make a change in the world

March 3 - April 9, 2020 | Online

Happy Holidays everyone! Our next round of Wikidata courses have been
announced for early 2020, and I wanted to let you know as soon as possible.


Did you know that Wikidata is responsible for all the open, linked data
behind Wikipedia? Or that when anyone around the world asks Siri or Alexa a
question, Wikidata is usually where the answer comes from? When you
participate in building out Wikidata’s information, you amplify your
knowledge and make data more inclusive. *Join our latest Wikidata training
.
*

Over 6 weeks, this professional training experience will teach you the ins
and outs of Wikidata as you join this linked data ecosystem, help make
linked data more equitable, and incorporate new metadata practices into
your professional life.

And please don't hesitate to reply to this email if you have any questions!

Cheers,
Samantha

[Mara Kurlandsky]

Hi all,

Please join me for a Webby Talk at the National Museum of Women in the Arts
(Washington, D.C.) on January 10 at 10am. More info below, and if you'd
like to attend, please RSVP through the Google form so I know how many
people to expect (and which room we should meet in). If you have other
museum colleagues in D.C. that would like to attend, feel free to forward
this! Just please note that this is *not a public event*.

What:
Webby Talks is a unique view into the ever-changing landscape of what’s
happening online, designed to provoke and inspire by highlighting some of
the most interesting trends, and innovative work on the Internet. The
presentation runs for 30-45 minutes and is based on research from more than
13,000 entries into last year’s Webby Awards, and a recent survey of 2,000
Americans.

This year’s Webby Talks theme is *Under the Influence: How the Internet
exploits our thirst for a good fight, and leaves us wanting more*.

National Museum of Women in the Arts
