To celebrate Women’s History Month, check out the Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum’s latest project, The Discoverability Lab! The Lab is a new project that explores innovative ways of making women’s history discoverable (and accessible) using technologies like machine learning, crowdsourcing, and big data. Watch the intro video on the home page for more information or consider joining their Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon on March 25.

Happy Women’s History Month!
