Rutgers University Libraries GLAM Project "Cultures, Diversity, and Inequality—Local and Global" Rutgers University (RU) liaison librarians will participate in a project to evaluate the depth and authoritativeness of Wikipedia diversity content and identify content gaps based on the relevant Rutgers curricular; and work with Wikipedia editors to add reliable RUL licensed resources and digital content to close the identified gaps in Wikipedia articles. To that end, we will get familiar with Wikipedia editing culture and carry on this program to make our unique contributions to Wikipedia articles.
