The standard tools have left many in the library community Zoomed out, leading us to explore other avenues to fulfill the ongoing need for online-only library events. Out of a desire to continue annually held Wikipedia edit-a-thons in this new virtual domain, we decided to shift to Discord, an online collaborative chat platform originally created for gamers and popular with today’s students. On March 11, nearly a year after the shutdown, we combined two Wikipedia edit-a-thons into a same-day, two-channel, side-by-side virtual event.en_US
