Hi Karen, Sorry I did not get back to you earlier. I can think of a couple of options so far:
1) Campus libraries: It seems it is easy for registered campus organizations to get access to meeting rooms. The problem is, although Berkeley Wikipedia club is a registered group, room reservation can only be done by a "signatory" for the group. The group mailing list itself is inactive - I wonder if anyone on this list (Kevin Gorman?) is a signatory. 2) The Berkeley Public Library: They seem to have a public room for community events (free, with free wifi) if you book it well in advance. http://www.berkeleypubliclibrary.org/community/book_a_meeting_room.php 3) I've written to my friend who works with the Compass Project, a student support group in the physical sciences, to see if they have any space that we can use - but I've yet to hear back from them. Among these, the Berkeley Public Library looks like the safest bet. I'll let you know if I can think of anything else.. -Shreyas On Sun, Jul 28, 2013 at 7:17 AM, Karen Coyle <kco...@kcoyle.net> wrote: > Hello, all. > > I've taken up the organizer role for the Berkeley Wikipedia meet-up group. > I'll do some figuring out on how to use Meetup.
