Wikidata Workshop 2024: National Library of Latvia
ByOverview
From the 1 to 3 October, Alan Ang from Wikimedia Deutschland and Wikidata volunteer, Camillo Pellizzari user: Epìdosis (talk · contribs), were invited to run a three-day Wikidata workshop for 25 librarians from the National Library of Latvia.
You can read more about the workshop here. All the presentation material, which we think constitute a pretty comprehensive set of resources for the onboarding of librarians onto Wikidata, can be accessed via commons:Category:National Library of Latvia - Wikidata workshop 2024 presentations
