Open Knowledge debate at University of Edinburgh |
November |
The University of Edinburgh is a hub for 'open knowledge activity at the moment. The University is pioneering MOOCS, the NLS Wikimedia-in-Residence is attached to the university, and the Open Knowledge Foundation's Scotland Ambassador works in the Informatics department, to name just a few. Perhaps it would be good to bring this community together through some sort of public discussion/debate? |
