Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Research Information Center 2011/2/2 Eric Hellman e...@hellman.net: For my talk at Code4Lib, I'm trying to find or gather statistics about the number of people doing any sort of code in libraries. My initial attempts to quantify this have failed. I would appreciate info from list members. If you'd like to help, send me two numbers 1. The number of people employed at or on contract to your library whose major responsibilities include software development or maintenance. Broadly defined. 2. The total FTE staff at your library.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Reminder: Newcomer dinner and Ribbons
Just a general question, how are team leaders contacting their attendees? I have no one's email addresses, so for Crazy Horse, I've put mine in the Wiki. --Joel Joel Richard IT Specialist, Web Services Department Smithsonian Institution Libraries | http://www.sil.si.edu/ (202) 633-1706 | (202) 786-2861 (f) | richar...@si.edu On Jan 31, 2011, at 10:52 AM, Becky Yoose wrote: Hi folks, If you'll be in Bloomington Monday evening, don't forget to sign up for the Newcomer Dinner [1].

Re: [CODE4LIB] Reminder: Newcomer dinner and Ribbons
Hi Joel (and others), It's easiest to use the wiki for communicating meeting place/time info to your group.

[CODE4LIB] Give a micro-talk on microservices at Open Repositories 2011!
Hi folks, I'm writing to encourage those of you working with or planning to work with microservices, broadly defined, to propose a 24x7 talk -- no longer than 7 minutes consisting of no more than 24 slides -- for Open Repositories 2011. The deadline for proposals is February 28th. Here's the official call for proposals: We welcome one- to two-page proposals (PDF preferred) for 7 minute presentations comprising no more than 24 slides. Similar to Pecha Kuchas or Lightning Talks, these 24x7 presentations will be grouped into blocks based on conference themes, with each block followed by a moderated discussion / question and answer session involving the audience and whole block of presenters. This forum will provide conference goers with a fast-paced survey of like work across many institutions, and presenters the chance to disseminate their work in more depth and context than a traditional poster. If enough talks around microservices are submitted, the topic will receive its own block. Please do consider submitting a proposal! -Mike P.S. Apologies for cross-posting.
