Universities, as institutions whose goals are to further knowledge, are a natural place to look when seeking new partnerships for the Wikimedia movement. They have access to vast resources, in terms of both libraries and people, which can help the Wikimedia movement’s goal of opening access to knowledge. More can be done to leverage this potential to its full extent, especially by expanding the scope of student-run efforts. This session will go into what developing student Wikimedia communities at universities can provide, some of the challenges faced in trying to build them, and strategies for long-term success.
