Hey everyone! The wiki page was set up at 
http://wiki.code4lib.org/index.php/Southeast so go there to edit the 
dates/times that work for you. If you can't log in, or don't want to, you can 
edit this document. I'm currently not able to log in to the wiki, and I'm sure 
many people don't want to have to deal with contacting Ryan just to add a 
time/date to a page. But I'll add the info that comes in on the doc when I can. 

Thanks everyone!

Note that there's an outstanding doodle for the NC LITe library instruction

populations, and I don't know whether people will want to try to make the
trip together or make two separate trips, but either way it might behoove
us to wait until that date is settled

Is there a large overlap with NC LITe? I have no idea what that is. Google

Re: [CODE4LIB] Southeast/Carolina Regional Times/Dates

2014-04-09 Thread Andreas Orphanides
It's just a name the group made up, so there's probably a bit of a
namespace conflict. I don't think there's a real web presence. But I do
know that at least 3 or 4 of the Code4Lib people at NCSU have also
expressed interest in the NC LITe meeting. The LIT stands for library
instructional technology, I think. (And the e is for make this nifty
and pronounceable.)

From the doodle, it looks like the most likely dates for NC LITe are May
28, June 2, or June 3, though there are some other possible dates in May as
well.

[CODE4LIB] New Zealand Chapter

2014-04-09 Thread Jay Gattuso
Hi all,

Long time listener, first time caller.

We don't have a C4L chapter over here in New Zealand, and I wondered what we 
would need to do to align the small group of Lib  / GLAM coders with the 
broader C4L group.

One of my colleagues did make this: http://i.imgur.com/XgGP9vX.jpg

We are  also setting up a two day code/hack fest, focusing on our Digital 
Preservation concerns, in June.

I'd also really like to run the hackfest under a C4L banner.

Any thoughts?

Really, Jay, you've got the t-shirt and the logo - what else could be 
needed? :-)


My take: reach out to a small but vibrant group; make sure it is diverse 
(type of library, type of person), and have a first meeting about how to 
have a second meeting. The first meeting may need to be folks in a 
nearby locale; the second would reach out to institutions that can add 
some support (space, time, motion).

Hi J,

Honestly, if you think it fits under Code4Lib, then the only thing you need
to consider other than organizing your event is the Code of Conduct:
http://bit.ly/coc4lib

Basically, you should make participants aware that the Code of Conduct
exists and that participants are expected to follow it. You should also
assign at least 1 male and 1 female to be the initial contact if
participants need to bring anything up. In most events I've been a part of,
we've just designated all the organizers to be possible initial contact
people and it would go from there.

Glad to hear that the interest in regionals is spreading!

Good luck and have fun!

I hope we'll see some of your contingent in Portland next year. Let the
list know if there's anything we can do to help or if you have any
questions. We're all making this up as we go along and want to help anyone
joining in.

  Nice.
 
  The real question is whether that's U+2163, like it should be.

  Hi all,
 
  Long time listener, first time caller.
 
  We don't have a C4L chapter over here in New Zealand, and I wondered
  what we would need to do to align the small group of Lib  / GLAM coders
  with the broader C4L group.
 
  One of my colleagues did make this: http://i.imgur.com/XgGP9vX.jpg
 
  We are  also setting up a two day code/hack fest, focusing on our
  Digital Preservation concerns, in June.
 
  I'd also really like to run the hackfest under a C4L banner.
 
  Any thoughts?
