Dear ld4 group,
I have the great pleasure to announce two new grant programs for projects
that support the goals of WikiCite: the promotion of open citations and linked
bibliographic data to serve free knowledge.
The steering committee is now accepting applications for the following two
types of grants. For both types the application deadline is 1 October 2020,
and all projects must be completed by 1 May 2021.
--- Project & Event grants ---
Grants between $2,000 and $10,000 (USD equivalent) are available to
individuals, groups, and organisations with a project that supports the
goals of Wikicite.
All the details, the eligibility criteria (especially for in-person
events[1]), and the application form are available on the WikiCite project
& event grants homepage:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiCite/grants
Individuals, groups, and organizations may apply, and projects may be of
any nature. This includes technical (e.g. software, tools), event (online,
or in-person), resources (training materials, documentation), or other
forms not mentioned – as long as it supports the goals of WikiCite.
--- e-Scholarships ---
The e-scholarship program is a new kind of grant in Wikimedia, created in
response to an era of COVID-19 quarantines, and the 2030 Movement strategy
goals.
An e-scholarship provides a per-diem equivalent allowance for 1-5 people to
stay at their home(s) and work for 2-4 days on a project supporting the
mission of WikiCite. e-scholarship recipients' projects can be the kinds of
things they might have previously undertaken with a scholarship for an
in-person hackathon, unconference, or research trip, for example.
All the details, eligibility criteria, program design principles, and the
application form are available on the WikiCite e-scholarships homepage:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiCite/e-scholarship
Funding will:
- be provided in advance;
- be calculated at the WMF per-diem rate for the city where the
e-scholarship recipient lives;
- and (as it is a living allowance) not require recipients to submit
expense reports.
"Remote group" applications are encouraged, as are projects which focus on
content or communities which are historically underrepresented in Wikimedia
projects. Building a bot, fixing a tool, wrangling a dataset, writing
complete documentation... all are valid e-scholarship projects. A
confirmation letter (in advance) and/or participation certificate
(afterwards) can also be provided.

- WikiCite is funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and the Wikimedia
Foundation -
[1] Applications for in-person events are eligible. The WMF will release a
risk assessment calculator for in-person events and a checklist of
precautions in early September. This protocol will apply to all Wikimedia
Foundation supported events. Applicants may publish a draft of their
proposals now, and edit it before the submission deadline to include a copy
of the results from the risk assessment protocol once it is published.

Subject: [IFLA-L] Free access to IFLA Journal's special issue on
Information Literacy until 21 August 2020
To: ifla-l(a)iflalists.org <ifla-l(a)iflalists.org>
[image: IFLA Journal: Volume 46, No.2 (June 2020) Special Issue:
Information literacy: From practice to research and back again]Dear
Colleagues
As a key IFLA sponsor, SAGE Publishing regularly makes available an issue
of IFLA Journal during the week of the World Library and Information
Congress. This year, they’re continuing the tradition virtually.
If you want to find out where the concept of “information literacy” came
from and where it’s heading, read this issue!
IFLA Journal has recently been providing more special issues covering hot
topics and this special issue is dedicated to Information literacy, one of
the most important skills librarians across the globe help users to
develop. Edited by colleagues from the Information Literacy Section
<https://www.ifla.org/information-literacy> and Library Theory and Research
Section <https://www.ifla.org/library-theory-and-research>, this issue is a
prime example of the great work being produced through IFLA’s professional
units.
With the potential to transform lives and societies, the importance of
information literacy is appreciated worldwide. How has this come to be?
The June 2020 edition can help you find out through its in-depth articles
on:
- the evolution of the concept of information literacy;
- how information literacy is needed as educational practice in the
higher education sector;
- the different methodological approaches to developing information
literacy and learning;
- and finally an exploration of the emerging concept of visual literacy.
The June 2020 issue is now freely accessible via the Sage website until *Friday
21 August 2020*. Check it out at https://journals.sagepub.com/toc/iflb/46/2
.
Kind regards,
IFLA Communications Team
