- Scan-a-thon / Source-a-thon with BAnQ's rare materials dating back over a century.
- Tour of the BAnQ and its backroom archives.
A Photo Drive - take photos for the Commons throughout the day.

August 10 - Thursday - Programming
On Thursday we invite you to attend our three=track programming sessions, which includes:

Presentations from community members on their activities, projects, and more.
Technical workshops on Wikidata, the Outreach Dashboard, and more.
Roundtable discussion on innovating edit-a-thons and meetups
