[Jessica Baumgart]

Hello,

On Monday, February 13th, at 7 PM, join the Boston Wikipedia Meetup 
Group and the Simmons Graduate School of Library and Information 
Science Alumni Board in the Special Functions Room, first floor, Main 
College Building of Simmons College for an introduction to 
researching effectively with Wikipedia.  We will cover finding 
information, cross-referencing and validating information, and 
contacting original authors.

We will also explore where to ask for help, how to make changes to 
articles, other ways to contribute to the community, and Wikimania, 
the 2006 International Wikimedia Foundation Conference, held in 
Cambridge from August 4-6.
