The Wikipedia Library

Event and editathon access
Can we get Wikipedia Library access for participants??

Accounts are available any time to any editor with over 6 months and 500 edits. Unfortunately, there is only the regular-signup process. We don't have 'event-only' access yet.

Editors would have to sign-up in advance to provide time to get their access distributed. A month would be prudent:

A more realistic idea is to use the Resource Exchange on ENWP or another Wiki.

or at other branches:

Sorry that this is the best we can do! We're building out a system which will be more flexible, but the Wikipedia Library Card Platform cannot yet provide that service.
