Smithsonian Institution Archives Wikimedia Partnership
 From March 2012 until June 2012, SarahStierch, Wikipedian-in-Residence, worked closely with archives and digital media staff at the Smithsonian Institution Archives (SIA) to expand archival content and partnership in and with Wikimedia. This page served as a hub for all Wikimedia community events, content organization, and community collaboration. Currently the Archives is collaborating with local Wikipedians and staff to hold edit-a-thons.
