The Vanishing Culture report arrives today at a critical moment: While @internetarchive recovers from a cyberattack, it’s a reminder of how fragile our access to knowledge can be. Preserving culture & history requires resilience—and collective action. 🔗 https://t.co/IcGMa396TJ

#WikidataWeekly update #651 is out now. It includes a map of #libraries worldwide. I just added coordinates for Norfolk Island and the Solomon Islands libraries. Still plenty of missing libraries though. Why not help? @wm_au @wikiprojectnz
