Ada Lovelace Day celebrates the contributions of self-identifying women to science, technology, engineering, and math. On Wednesday, October 9th, Vanderbilt Libraries and The Wond'ry host an edit-a-thon to improve Wikipedia's pages on women in STEM at the Wond'ry.

While Wikipedia is the fifth most popular website in the world, with more than 32 million views a day, less than 18% of its English-language biographies are about women. To honor Ada Lovelace—and her contributions to mathematics and computing—we'll add more entries to Wikipedia and give you the tools to keep making the Internet less sexist. All you have to do is come armed with a laptop or tablet!

When: October 9, 2019 11:00am - 2:00pm
