Through the Wikipedia Visiting Scholars program, Wikipedia editors gain online access to an educational institution's library resources like databases, journals, ebooks, and special collections.
Libraries get involved because of a desire to see their collections put to good use and to make a difference in public knowledge in one or more topic areas. Wikipedians receive access to specialized and paywalled content to expand and improve articles in topic areas they already care about.
