Hi WMNYC, My WiR residency at the Metropolitan New York Library Council is almost over, so I think it's a good time to report back on my projects with the local GLAM community. Find below short summaries of my recent, upcoming, and future Wikipedia projects and engagements with institutions. If you have any questions about these projects or would like to get more involved in any one in particular please let me know. All the best. Yours, Dorothy Howard *Dec GLAM Project Report for my Work as WiR for METRO* *Recent: * Met with Met Digital Media Dept. They will be having a meeting with Sree Sreenivasan, about the museum-wide approach to Wikipedia this week. Hoping to get a Wikipedian-in-Residence there and find/organize staff excited to edit.
