Washington D.C. History Editathon is a rare chance to go behind the scenes at the Washington D.C. Historical Society and use their unique resources to research and update Wikipedia pages related to D.C. history. This event is fortunate to have three sponsors: the Historical Society of Washington D.C., the Washingtoniana/Black Studies Division of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Public Library, and George Washington University. Each has rich collections related to the history of Washington DC.
This event includes: a behind-the-scenes tour with the Library Director of the Historical Society, a tour of the exhibit: Window to Washington: The Kiplinger Collection at HSW, lunch, and the edit-a-thon.
