In honor of Ada Lovelace Day, an international celebration of the contributions of self-identifying women in STEM, Mann Library is hosting a Wikipedia edit-a-thon, which will honor and highlight under-recognized women in science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM), and related fields.  You can pitch in for just half an hour or the whole day, by writing an entry, adding a footnote, translating text, uploading images, or by looking up information for others.

All are welcome—no matter your gender and regardless of experience with editing. Unfamiliar with Wikipedia and Wikidata? We’ll walk you through the editing process.

This edit-a-thon is sponsored by Cornell University Library, the Milstein Program in Technology & Humanity, the Department of Science & Technology Studies, the Dept. of Information Science, Cornell Media Studies, and the CALS Zone.
