The Photographing Libraries competition runs until 31 May 2023

Take part in the Photographing Libraries competition, organised by Wikimedia ČR and the Association of Librarians and Information Workers of the Czech Republic.

The competition is open to all librarians and library enthusiasts who are interested in photography and sharing content freely. Photographs can be taken of the outside of library buildings in 2023. The ten most successful participants will receive a small prize.

The most successful photos will be posted on SKIP’s Facebook profile and receive a special award for the most likes. The winning photo will be displayed on the Media Literacy portal in July 2023. After the contest, an online workshop will be held, to which participants will be invited, to enrich the photo data using categories on Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata and to attach photos to library entries in Wikidata. Submitted photos will be used by the Obálkyknih.cz project, which provides services for more than 6,000 libraries in the Czech Republic and the Knihovny.cz portal. Join and take part in this great competition!
