The LITA/ALCTS Library Code Year IG will be having our
first meeting atALA Annual and we need your help. We are looking for
speakers to give lightening talks:
*Call for Speakers*
What strategies, or roadblocks, have you found in
learning to code? How have you used programming to improve library service
models or workflows?
The Library Code Year Interest Group seeks speakers for
lightning talks (5 minutes) on any aspect of coding and libraries,
including projects you have completed, your experience learning to code or
thoughts on projects you would like to see in the future. Speakers at all levels of coding skill and from all types of library backgrounds
are invited to participate.
Our inaugural meeting will be Saturday, June 23,
1:30-3:30pm at the Doubletree Suites (Tuscany AB). You can find it on the
ALA Scheduler at http://ala12.scheduler.ala.org/node/651
Feel free to contact me with any questions at mcdanold@pobox.upenn.edu or post your thoughts on our Connect page: http://connect.ala.org/node/167971
Even if you don't want to give a talk, I hope to see you
there!
Cheers,
-Shana
