We will also be providing light refreshments and will be presenting a specially designed award cookie for those attendees that add content during the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon.

Mia's library [3]is open Tuesday-Friday 11:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. and its staff is available for providing assistance in setting up a Wikipedia personal account and for research in preparation for editing Wikipedia. You can search our library's collection online through our catalog Mia Library Catalog. We also have numerous subscription research databases on art that you can access while in the library.
