Wikipedia: Need for Librarians as Contributors
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia built collaboratively using wiki software, is the most visited reference site on the web.[1] Only 270 librarians identify as Wikipedians[2] of 21,431,799 Wikipedians with named accounts.[3] This needs to change. Understanding Wikipedia is essential to teaching information literacy and editing Wikipedia is essential to foster successful information-seeking behavior. Librarians who become skilled Wikipedians will maintain the centrality of librarianship to knowledge management in the 21st century—especially through active participation in crowdsourcing. Crowdsourcing is the online participation model that makes use of the collective intelligence
of online communities for specific purposes[4] in this case creating and editing articles for Wikipedia.
I began my career as a librarian in pre-digital times when the Guide to Reference Books was called Winchell. As a young librarian I conscientiously reviewed new editions of reference resources and annotated my copy of Winchell until the next edition was released—a rather big event in the librarian calendars of the last century. Since 2000 the Guide has only been published online.[5] Yet the special expertise of librarians honed by our deep understanding
of the reference books annotated in Winchell (later Sheehy, then Balay, now Kieft) and honored in yearly reviews[7] may give us false confidence that our expertise is widely understood and appreciated. In the 21st century these skills make little difference unless we connect them to the world’s largest and most used reference tool—Wikipedia.
Academic bias against Wikipedia was discussed in 2007 at Inside Higher Education as Middlebury college history professors banned its use, although the columnist points out that an analysis of the accuracy of Wikipedia for The Journal of American History found that in many entries, Wikipedia was as accurate or more accurate than more traditional encyclopedias.[8] Now seven years old, the 161 comments attached to the column illuminate librarian and
faculty opinions heavily critical of Wikipedia as a source.
In a 2010 study of Wikipedia use in higher education Head and Eisenberg point out: “Far more students, than not, used Wikipedia….Reasons for using Wikipedia were diverse: Wikipedia provided students with a summary about a topic, the meaning of related terms, and also got students started on their research and offered a usable interface.“[9] As our students are increasingly digital natives,[10] we can expect them to be more open to crowdsourced technologies like Wikipedia.
Information literacy combines a repertoire of abilities, practices, and dispositions focused on expanding one’s understanding of the information ecosystem, with the proficiencies of finding, using and analyzing information, scholarship, and data to answer questions, develop new ones, and create new knowledge, through ethical participation in communities of learning and scholarship.[11]
This definition of information literacy certainly provides a rationale for using Wikipedia, but The Framework indicates no strong recognition of the growing importance of Wikipedia as a source. This is a missed opportunity. Again, Wikipedia is the most used reference resource in the world.
“Wikipedia and Knowledge Management:” the Courses
During 2013-2014 I developed a new course, “Wikipedia and Knowledge Management,” and reorganized two other courses, “History of Books and Libraries,” and “Librarians and Human Rights” with large portions of assignments to be done in Wikipedia. I decided that students could apply critical thinking skills to enhance articles in Wikipedia and at the same time work to increase the amount of information about libraries and librarianship at the site. Since my classes are 60 percent women it also seemed to me that teaching more women to edit in Wikipedia would be a way I could help in a small way to address the gender gap among Wikipedia editors.[12] I live by the question asked by Eleanor Roosevelt, ‘Where do human rights begin? In small places, close to home, so close and so small that they cannot be seen on any maps of
the world. Such are the places where every man, woman, and child seeks equal justice, equal opportunity, equal dignity without discrimination.’[13] A class is a good small place.
In this article I provide a summary of the work done by students enrolled in these classes at the University of South Florida, School of Information, a program accredited by the American Library Association.[14] Students were extraordinarily creative and without limits as they went through tutorials and became proficient at editing.[15] The outcome of the classes was that enrolled students are now creative contributors, skilled editors, and managers of content in Wikipedia. They are both librarians AND Wikipedians.
To demonstrate the scope of work I provide examples from the three classes. These examples are intended to demonstrate the range of scholarship and creativity that graduate students accomplished as editors. Clearly, these are examples of solid work on which others can build and expand. Crowdsourcing by librarians is a strategy for extending our contributions to knowledge and especially to topics relating to books and libraries.
LIS Course: “Wikipedia and Knowledge Management.”
A geographical, sociological and chronological overview of knowledge management beginning with the printed encyclopedia.
How Wikipedia came about and how a virtual army of volunteers crowd-sourced a user-built encyclopedia of
over 4 million articles.
Class activities will include editing, writing and organizing knowledge to be included in Wikipedia.[16]
Biographical contributions
Out of the gate one student added a new entry on The Librarian (Giuseppe Arcimboldo’s painting).
The Librarian (Giuseppe Arcimboldo)
Another student observed: “Wikipedia’s list of librarians was looking male dominated and Eurocentric so I added some notable female and international librarians. While I was glad to see that so many had Wikipedia pages, I thought it was important they be included in an overall view.” By including a few examples of this student’s work taken from the “history” tab of each page we
can see how this was accomplished (see endnote 17).[17]
For the human rights class a new entry was written for Clara Breed, a librarian in San Diego, California, remembered chiefly for her support for Japanese American children during World War II. This entry was featured in the 2/28/14 DYK section[18] and had over 8,137 visits in between time of creation and March, 2014. It was one of the top visited pages in March 2014. The user page of petercannon[19] is a resource to review this process. Additionally, here is a screen shot:
Below is a list of over 40 biographies added during the three classes. Those with a + symbol were new entries. Others were extant entries that were expanded and edited. Because Wikipedia is not in alphabetical order but is an openly searchable database I have listed biographies the way they appear on their Wikipedia pages. Some students included new images with their reports and a few examples are provided. Some wrote biographies of librarians whose careers had a focus on human rights. Some looked to the history of the discipline to add notable librarians and book people.

100 of the Most Important 20th Century Leaders in the United States
And, as a tour de force, one student (already a well-established Wikipedian—the legendary Gamaliel)[20] decided to edit and update entries for librarians listed
in American Libraries as “100 of the Most Important Leaders We Had in the 20th Century.”[21] He went through the list and looked for basic things to improve: categories, citations, redirects, dates of birth/death, etc. For most leaders listed below additions and edits were made to improve and enhance their entry.

To get an idea of the kinds of changes made to these entries by Gamaliel a few examples are provided in the endnotes [23]
Library Associations
Library associations are not well represented in Wikipedia and adding and editing them could be a major focus for librarians who become Wikipedians.[24] So much work to support intellectual freedom and outreach takes place in librarian associations that is documented haphazardly on websites of various degrees of currency. There is much support for students by hundreds of librarians in their associations raising funds for scholarships or awards that encourage research:
The Progressive Librarian Guild’s Braverman Award, for example.[25] Having Wikipedia entries for library associations enhances the visibility of library and information work. Students added new entries and expanded extant ones. The list of library associations on which class members worked to update links is a starting point for additional article creation and editing.[26]
American Association of Law Libraries
+Association of Caribbean University, Research and Institutional Libraries

Library Updates or New Entries (+) United States
Another group of entries on which students worked were devoted to a variety of U.S. libraries and related topics. Once again those proceeded by a + were new to Wikipedia. Other topics were expanded.
The classes felt that general library information was lacking for many locations and students were especially conscientious adding photographs, location data and history for many libraries. Wikipedia entries on Florida counties were inconsistent in the inclusion of library system information. Student Dgiguere89 did as stunning amount of work adding library information to county entries. A few examples indicate the scope of her work.[27] Though Florida libraries were the majority of the entries, some in other states were included.

A great deal of work was done adding information to national library entries. However, one class member, Brooksky, who tried to add information about the National Library of Pakistan was unable to do so. The individual watching the site—“Smsarmad” used the ruse of copyright violation to delete information that was added. Having reviewed the work I know it was not copied and was
information that had been documented with notes from secondary sources. When Brooksky met Smsarmad’s demands the changes were still deleted. Inexplicably the higher authority agreed that the sources should be deleted. I could only surmise that individuals who become conversant in the Wikipedia community on certain topic have created levels of authority that can overturn well intentioned and accurate information on rare occasions. To overturn this would take much more editing focus than was available to this class. We did not have difficulties with any other national library. It is likely best to be aware that this sort of activity can go on, can be discouraging, but is not typical. It would be a leap to suggest that there is a cultural bias against women editing
the National Library of Pakistan site, but it could be an aspect of the “Malala effect.”[28] Interested readers may want to review the “Talk” pages for this library to see how issues might be contested.[29]
Listed below are national library entries that were edited by students in the classes.

And a few additional non-U.S. entries demonstrate the range of library and manuscript entries that can be expanded.
