Wikipedia Loves Libraries is a general initiative for improved Wikimedia engagement with libraries (and archives), and more concretely an annual campaign of wiki-workshops and edit-athons at libraries around Open Access Week in October/November.


In Portland, Oregon, Wiki Loves Libraries will be held from 1–4pm on Sunday, October 13, 2013 at the Portland Art Museum<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portland_Art_Museum>'s Crumpacker Family Library, located on the second floor of the Museum's Mark Building (formerly the Masonic Temple). The local arts community will be the focus of the edit-athon, though experienced editors and curious "newbies" are welcome to work on other topics as well. The event will also kick off the Oregon Arts Project<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Oregon_Arts_Project>, an on-wiki initiative to improve coverage of the arts in Oregon.

A Vancouver, WA event is being planned, per this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Loves_Libraries.


FYI,
