In celebration of Women's History Month, RIT Libraries at the Rochester Institute of Technology will be hosting their fifth annual Women on Wikipedia Edit-a-thon on Friday, March 26, 2021, from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm EDT. The goal of this event is to improve the representation of women on Wikipedia by editing or writing entries about notable women or topics related to women.

This year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we'll be taking the event online! Register to join the virtual meetup where training, resources, and community will be available to empower participants to edit Wikipedia. No experience is necessary.

People of all gender identities and expressions are welcome. Drop in for half an hour or stay as long as you would like. Access services are available by request at http://myaccess.rit.edu.
