The Code4Lib Scholarship Committee is pleased to announce the Code4Lib 2017 
Conference Diversity Scholarship awardees. The scholarship provides up to
$1200 per awardee to cover the costs of attending the 2017 Code4Lib conference 
in Los Angeles, California, March 6-9, 2017.

These scholarships were made possible by generous donations from The MIT 
Libraries; Equinox Software; Northwestern University; University of Miami 
Libraries; The University of Arizona Libraries; School of Information Sciences, 
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; Rutgers School of Communication and 
Information; Bess Sadler and Mark Bussey; and the Code4Lib community.

Many thanks to all the donors who made these scholarships possible!

The committee received applications from forty highly qualified candidates this 
year, and it was a humbling experience to select just eleven recipients.

Congratulations to all Code4Lib scholarship recipients!

Hi all,

For the conference goers to C4L LA next week, I am trying to get a head-count 
for the LibTechWomen meetup.  It will be on Wed 6 - 8PM. The tentative plan is 
to walk from the conference venue to a nearby pub, a 10- 15 min walk. 
Afterwards, we will probably head to the Play & Share.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Post-election statement draft - also waiting for merge

[Kim, Bohyun]

Apologies for forgetting the spell-check! I was typing too fast. Here is a 
version with less typos! : )

Under ordinary circumstances, there shouldn't be a great need for Code4Lib to 
reiterate our values of diversity, equity, and inclusion. However, this year's 
contentious election season followed by many appalling acts of hate around the 
country has left us with no choice but to re-affirm our unfaltering support and 
strong commitment to these fundamental values.

As technologists, we always look for ways to make things work better. We love 
efficiency; we love elegance; we aspire to be free of any pain point or bug in 
everything we design and build. But we do this not for the sake of efficiency, 
elegance, and our deeply-rooted desire to improve things. We do this for the 
sake of people. Our ultimate aspiration is to help people get things done with 
the tools we create with delight. For this, we try to understand our users with 
all their differences in race, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, 
religion, disability, age, genetic information, veteran status, ancestry, 
national or ethnic origin, language, socio-economic background, citizenship 
status, and more. This is why we rely on empathy as one of the most important 
guiding principles in all we do as technologists. Without our caring, our work 
as a developer, designer, information specialist, and IT professional would be 
missing its heart.

Code4Lib has a proud history of recognizing the lack of diversity in the 
technology sector as a serious problem and acting to address it head-on. In the 
Code4Lib community, diversity, equity, and inclusion are not mere words. They 
underpin all we do from Diversity Scholarships, Newcomer Dinner, Code of 
Conduct, to our decision regarding where to host our next Code4Lib conference. 
They represent and reflect our shared and cherished understanding that we 
always solve difficult problems better together.

As a community that deeply values diversity, equity, and inclusion, Code4Lib 
will always be a welcoming and safe community for all who are passionate about 
information and technology. Everyone in our community is valued and respected 
regardless of what they look like, what their faiths are, what disabilities 
they may have, how they identify their gender, who they love, where they come 
from, what language they speak, or where they live. There is no place for 
bigotry, intolerance, hatred, harassment, and violence in Code4Lib. Today, we 
stand together in our most forceful support for diversity, equity, and 
inclusion.

Hi all,

Thanks for all who signed up for the LibTechWomen meet-up on Wed 3/8! Due to

So I hope all of you can all still come! Please see the changed location/time 
info below.  All are welcome including code4lib veterans, lurkers, newbies and 
so on!

***If you signed up but are unable to attend due to this change, please submit 
the sign-up form again with your name + 'CANCEL' so that I can let the Yard 
House people know about the change in advance. But again, the best if you still 
come!

I've said this before and I'll keep saying it, this is not true that you
need a legal entity to have your project fiscally sponsored by a fiscal
sponsor. I know of many projects (not library related, generally
'charitable') which become fiscally sponsored without having any legal
incorporation or other legal entity. The project is legally a project of
the fiscal sponsor.

It is very common. It is a common way for "charitable" projects to start
out, without legally incorporating at all, perhaps to legally incorporate
and separate from the fiscal sponsor at a later date.

If the people we are talking to for fiscal sponsorship are fine with this,
it is a common thing.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Fiscal Continuity IG report redux [silence has been deafening]

[Kim, Bohyun]

Hi all,

Great discussion so far. I want to add a few things as I do not see them 
mentioned in the email thread so far.

As a current Local Planning Committee (LPC) member for the C4L18 DC Conference, 
here are some things that I would like to share.

--- Having a separate fiscal sponsor allows a more diverse group of C4L people 
to propose and host a conference in their area. Previously, only those 
affiliated with large higher ed institutions ('and' those who were in an 
empowered position such as dean, AD, AUL etc., to persuade their library to 
take up on the fiscal sponsorship responsibility) were able to propose and host 
a conference. But with a fiscal sponsor, that limit will be lifted. My hope is 
that with a fiscal sponsor already determined, more diverse and grassroots 
groups of C4L members will be able to volunteer and participate in C4L 
conference planning and hosting in terms of affiliation and location.

(Also note that it is entirely possible that someone or some group of people 
without such affiliation still want to host a conference while no one or no 
group with such affiliation want to host a conference in the same year. In the 
current system, we get no conference. This is exactly what happened after last 
year's conference until DLF stepped up for us for the 1-year contract, which 
they initially did not want to do. If they didn't change their position, there 
would have been no DC hosting proposal, period.)

--- As many of you know, conference planning is complicated, such as 
negotiating hotel contracts, finding a reception venue, catering cost, etc. 
These are definitely not our expertise and shouldn't be although LPC will 
inevitably deal with a good deal of them. My experience so far working with DLF 
(Bethany) and Concentra (Jen) has been terrific, and I believe our conference 
tremendously benefit from their expertise in conference planning, budget 
management, negotiating etc. Their expertise in logistics saves us money. If 
our goal is to create the best conference experience (including conference 
planning experience for LPC and other committee volunteers) and if we can 
afford to pay a small fee for fiscal agency and professional conference 
planning, then I say that's money well-spent and worthwhile investment for the 
long-term sustainability of C4L and C4L conference.

--- Regarding the need to create C4L as a legal entity, that is NOT required to 
enter a fiscal sponsorship agreement AFAIK. Note that this year, the current 
LPC is ALREADY working with DLF as a fiscal sponsor for the 2018 DC conference. 
Fiscal sponsor is there to make things easier in terms of fund transfer and 
fiscal liability on behalf of the Code4Lib community. I highly doubt any org we 
discussed as potential future sponsor would be remotely interested in taking 
away our autonomy. The fiscal sponsor has no saying in programming or anything 
else. Its involvement is limited to the conference logistics only, and all 
decisions are mediated and finalized by the C4L LPC.

Personally I would be more worried about C4L autonomy if we start setting up 
bylaws and the formal board and electing people to. I am not saying that that 
is necessarily bad. But as a community, we have been operating successfully so 
far based upon group consensus (from discussion + occasional heated arguments) 
and I like it that way. Making C4L a legal entity with the board that formally 
governs with bylaws is a far far greater change to C4L as it currently is than 
getting a fiscal sponsor with a 3 or 5 year term limit for a fee in order to 
get us more stability in annual conference logistics.

Cheers,
Bohyun

Of the things issues surrounding governance and finances, I wouldn't invest
much energy in  journal royalties --  it's a simple issue and the distance
between best and worst case scenarios is narrow.

C4l's strength and weakness is the same exact thing -- things happen
because people do things. The domain name, systems, and  everything we rely
