Help add to history! This month we are featuring Women's History in Rochester. Learn about editing Wikipedia pages and the resources available in RBSCP collections.

No experience is necessary. Training will be available and there will be plenty of volunteers to answer questions about editing.

Drop in for half an hour or longer; no need to stay for the full session. Light refreshments will be provided.

View our tutorials and get ideas for edits to make on our LibGuide.

Event information[edit]

Finding aids[edit]

One of the ways to contribute to this event is to help us add finding aids to Wikipedia articles and/or Wikidata items. This table lists some of the finding aids in Rare Books and their corresponding Wikipedia articles & Wikidata items. Refer to your hand out for editing instructions.

Please only work on the items you are assigned on your handout. Thank you!
