Representation matters. Not just on screens and pages, but in the information and data we share. Join us in the Library Collaboratory to celebrate Black History Month by learning to edit Wikipedia. Anyone can make a difference by helping to improve coverage of Black histories online.

Come for community, and learn to edit Wikipedia pages if you're new! Optional training for beginners is offered at the start of the event. Drop in and out anytime.

This event is part of a larger series organized by library and archives staff and students at Toronto Metropolitan University, Toronto Public Library, University of Toronto and York University.
