1Lib1Ref - Wiki is built on referencing - the more and better references on Wikipedia, the more reliable and robust the whole thing becomes. The 7th most visited site on the web, Wikipedia is where most people start their research. Good references make the information they find more reliable and trustworthy, and a better springboard to further investigation. This month Te Papa [and Turnbull Library] are joining the 1Lib1Ref campaign to make Wikipedia a more reliable and robust source, and Wikimedia Aotearoa New Zealand can support your organisation joining in too. 1Lib1Ref runs twice a year, asking the world’s librarians and other knowledge-holders to add just one reference to Wikipedia.

The Journey from Short-Term to Long-Term Memory Imagine your brain as a vast library, where new information is a book placed on a cart. The process of moving these books from the cart (short-term memory) to the shelves (long-term memory) is crucial. But how does this transition happen? It’s all about encoding and retrieval practices. Short-Term Memory: This is like the entrance hall of our brain’s library. It’s where information first arrives, but it doesn’t stay here for long. Without proper attention, these details can easily get lost. Long-Term Memory: To move information here, we need to actively engage with it, encode it meaningfully, and practice retrieving it.
