What is #1Lib1Ref?

Play media

Imagine a World where Every Librarian Added One More Reference to Wikipedia.

Wikipedia is one of the first stops for readers and researchers. Let's make it better! Your goal today is to add one reference to Wikipedia! Any citation to a reliable source is a benefit to Wikipedia readers worldwide. When you edit, make sure to include the hashtag #1Lib1Ref in the edit summary.

The #1Lib1Ref campaign is supported by Wikipedia Library, a group of dedicated volunteers and Wikimedia Affiliates around the world. We also work closely with local library networks to promote the campaign. The campaign runs multiple times per year (January and May), and you can organize events any time that works for you!
