Re: [CODE4LIB] code4lib needs YOU for targeted sponsorship

[Ruth Frasur]

Mary,

These sound like a good opportunity for a variety of orgs, institutions,
and businesses to show their support for both the Code4Lib community and
conference as well as libraries in general.  The streaming video is
invaluable for a lot of individuals who are unable to travel to the actual
on-site conference.  Thanks for getting the info out.

Ruth (of the Frasur variety...somewhere in an Indiana library)
