The GLAM-WIKI folks are actively seeking participation in Wikipedia from libraries. I would recommend you specifically talk to Liam Wyatt and Katie Filbert (cc'd here) about the ins and outs of library bots on Wikipedia. They helped organize the recent event in NYC. Liam was the Wikipedian in Residence at the British Museum. //Ed PS. some context for Liam and Katie: folks from OCLC are asking about policies regarding bots adding links to viaf.org for name authorities, similar to what Wikimedia-Germany have done.
