In 2009-2010, the Wikimedia Foundation will be developing a slate of basic educational materials - print, online and video- to attract new authors and editors to Wikipedia. The collective set of these resources is internally being called The Bookshelf.

Prue- I have finally found your whiteboard message and have approved your comment.
