Auckland Meetup #22 – Saturday 4 May 2024

 * Date: Saturday 4 May 2024
 * Time: 10:00 am to midday
 * Location: Meeting Room, New Lynn War Memorial Library, 3 Memorial Drive, New Lynn, Auckland
 * Bring a laptop if you have one. There are publicly available computers if you don't have a laptop, but they are located elsewhere in the library.

Venue
The group will meet in the Meeting Room located on the ground floor of New Lynn War Memorial Library. Please ensure that the room is left how we found it including table and chair locations.

The library is a one-minute walk from New Lynn train station and the New Lynn Transport Interchange, served by trains on the Western Line, and numerous bus routes (14, 18, 22N, 24B, 24R, 68, 149, 152, 154, 161, 162, 170, 171, 172, 186, 195, 191, and 670).

Future meetups
This is a recurring event every four weeks, but double-check the Wikipedia:Auckland Meetup page to confirm. To avoid King's Birthday weekend, the next meetup will be on Saturday 8 June 2024.

Join the Wikimedia Aotearoa New Zealand to be kept informed about events, scholarships, funding opportunities, and conferences.
