Wikipedia is one of the first places to look for information. The platform provides people around the world with trustworthy, unbiased and up-to-date information. #1Lib1Ref is an abbreviation for one librarian:in, one reference. Twice a year - from 15 January to 5 February and from 15 May to 5 June - the campaign calls on librarians around the world and anyone with a passion for free knowledge to add missing references to articles on Wikipedia to make the articles even more credible and reliable.

You too can help improve the quality of content on Wikipedia for billions of people! We invite you to join us in an online Hacky Hour at #1Lib1Ref. For your information, we have recorded a Cookie Lecture in which Rabea Müller explains the action and gives an introduction to editing articles. You are welcome to watch the video in advance. But of course our experts will also answer your questions during the Hacky Hour.
