Art Students League Archive Edit-a-thon with Smithsonian American Art and Portrait Gallery Library

 * During this training, attendees will learn the basics of how to edit Wikipedia by updating articles related to the Art Students League of New York. Librarians from the Smithsonian American Art Museum and Portrait Gallery will provide access to a large archive of reference material that was recently donated by the Art Students League of New York.
