| blurb = The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) is a learned society in the United Kingdom with the goal of "advancing the chemical sciences". They publish a variety of scientific journals across all fields of chemical research. They have generously offered the use of 100 accounts to access all of the electronic resources available through RSC Gold ([http://www.rsc.org/Publishing/librarians/RSC_Gold.asp]), which include ebooks and journals. All initial accounts will be issued for a full year. The donation is part of the RSC's Wikimedian in Residence project; here is [http://www.rsc.org/news-events/rsc-news/articles/2014/dec/gold-journals-donation-for-wikipedia-editors/ their announcement].

- TWL is interested in having guest bloggers. Guest blogging gives the opportunity for both The Wikipedia Library and RSC to profile our partnership, and it gives the guest bloggers a new platform to share their editing experience with others (which is good for the Wikimedia community).
