Ig Wiki Librarians Hub

After participating during the Wikipedia Course for Librarians in 2020, Goodness Ignatius recognized the importance of increasing librarians involvement and raising awareness of training opportunities in Nigeria. To this end, she took the initiative to organize a tutorial session for new editors at Nnamdi Azikiwe University in Awka, Anambra State, under the auspices of the Igbo Wikimedians User Group. The goal of this training, titled "ABC of Editing Wikipedia" was to promote increased participation and to improve the quality of Nigerian content on Wikipedia and other Wikimedia Foundation projects. The training was a resounding success, and Goodness was inspired by the level of engagement, feedback, and impact it had. Determined to continue her efforts, she was encouraged by the impact, involvement and feedback of the training and she decided to organize more trainings with the aim of recruiting more librarians and interested participants in Nigeria for involvement in the Wikimedia Foundation projects.
