Girona brand new Public Library

New round of Wikipedia workshops to Catalan Network of Public Libraries
2 years ago we started a experimental project with the Catalan Network of Public Libraries, expecting they will become our real network on Catalan territory. We did a round of 5 Wikipedia workshops in counties central library branches to train the librarians. Two years later, more than 100 Catalan Public libraries are somehow active on Wikipedia, and some of them are even self-organizing edit-a-thons, activities, workshops or Wiki takes. That's why this 2015 we did a new second round of 4h long Wikipedia workshop to public librarians in the cities on Lleida, Barcelona, Tarragona, Tortosa and Girona so we can train a new generation of wiki-librarians. And yes, with Visual Editor is much more easier!! As a commitment from their side, each one of them took the "assignment" to create/expand a Wikipedia article before Feb 20. here is the list of the articles that are being created.
