Abstract

Would you like to re-energise your metadata skills, re-enthuse your colleagues by demonstrating the power of metadata, and re-vitalise discovery of your unique content? Then this session is for you! Supporting this year’s theme of “Re-discovery” Ruth Elder and Helen Williams will introduce their recently launched Wikidata Thesis Toolkit, a document which aims to reduce the development burden for other institutions looking to establish a Wikidata thesis project. Ruth and Helen will showcase the value and impact of a Wikidata thesis project at each of their institutions, inspire the audience to get hands on with Wikidata through the live creation of a Wikidata thesis item, and demonstrate how SPARQL queries make use of your metadata. We hope that this session will be foundational in developing a growing community of practice among UK metadata experts who are interested in developing Wikidata work and sharing experience with one another.
