Re: [CODE4LIB] Call for Code4Lib 2016 Pre-Conference Proposals

2015-10-07 Thread Fox, Bobbi 
Hi, Christina!

I don't have a workshop to propose, but I *do* have a plea for any workshop 
that is a hands-on-the-laptop experience:

That the presenter of said workshop provide links, in advance, to any software 
needed.  If the presenter would suggest the use of vagrant or docker (or 
whatever else is out there), then links to those tools, plus good, easy 
implementation instructions, should also be supplied in advance.  In addition, 
if the workshop is going to feature a particular language or framework, that 
should be specified in advance as well.  (why no, I *don't* know how to spin up 
a web server on my Windoze laptop; at work I do it in Linux!)

I have unfortunately been to too many workshops where the presenter either 
assumed a crystal-clear, fast, internet connection for the 40 participants, or 
assumed a lot more vagrant/docker knowledge than I, and several others, had.


(hmm, maybe I can find someone to propose an "everything you need to learn, 
software package-wise, to take advantage of Code4Lib hands-on workshops...)

Cheers,
Bobbi

  How does it enhance the LoC's documentation? Here's one example.

Re: [CODE4LIB] Vote for Code4lib 2016 location

Is there wiggle room on the Philadelphia multiple track proposal, or do those 
of us who would prefer single track only have the [not]choice of voting for 
L.A.?

Best regards,

[CODE4LIB] Access 2013: still looking for a room-mate

2013-09-12 Thread Fox, Bobbi 
If you're a woman going to Access 2013 (http://accessconference.ca/) the week 
after next, would you like to save money by sharing a room?
I currently have something booked at the Extended Stay St Johns -- Downtown, 
but can cancel it if you have a better deal :-)

Time's growing short, so please give a shout soon.

Thanks,
Bobbi
