Abstract

I purpose in this communication to continue the reflection started on my blog about connections between librarians and wikimedian tools. I believe that collective intelligence will improve databases. In the same way that wikimedians contribute freely to wikidata, librarians will participate in the improvement of the general catalog of any library. Wikipedia and Wikidata are also helpful for the librarian because they permits to see errors on authority controls>
