<p>LydiaZvyagintseva: </p> <hr /> <div>= Code4Lib 2019 Conference Committees =<br /> <br /> Hosting a conference is incredibly complex, and it cannot be done without the help of the entire community. If you are interested in being an awesome person and applying your skills to a particular part of the Code4Lib 2019 conference, create an account on this wiki and sign-up for one or more of the groups below (please provide a contact). Each committee must have a Primary Contact (chair), Secondary Contact (co-chair), and Documentarian (secretary). The role of the Documentarian is to transcribe key information to future conference committees, such as timelines, costs, process, etc. Feel free to improve the summary statements for each of the committees. When adding your name, please indicate 'v' if you are a veteran on the committee so that we ensure committees are not made up entirely of newbies.<br /> <br /> We will assign a local contact (LPC) to each committee.<br /> <br /> == Location and Dates ==<br /> <br /> * Location:[http://doubletree3.hilton.com/en/hotels/california/doubletree-by-hilton-hotel-san-jose-JOSE-DT/index.html DoubleTree by Hilton] near the Airport, San José, CA<br /> * Dates: February 19 (pre-con) - 22, 2019<br /> ** Pre-conferences: February 19, 2019<br /> ** Main meeting: February 20-22, 2019<br /> ** Post conference activities: Coming Soon<br /> <br /> == Local Planning Committee ==<br /> This committee is charged with running the show such as overall timeline, budgeting, coordinating of locations and logistics, wrangler of committees, and communicating with the community.<br /> <br /> * [mailto:nicole.esque@gmail.com Nicole Johnson], bepress - co-chair, Primary Contact<br /> * [mailto:ephetteplace@cca.edu Eric Phetteplace], California College of the Arts - co-chair, Primary Contact<br /> * [mailto:tennantr@oclc.org Roy Tennant], OCLC - Tertiary Contact<br /> * [mailto:matienzo@stanford.edu Mark Matienzo], Stanford University - Tertiary Contact<br /> * [mailto:aaron.collier@stanford.edu Aaron Collier], Stanford University - Tertiary Contact<br /> <br /> == Website Working Group ==<br /> This group will focus on content strategy (in collaboration with the Documentation Committee) and feature implementations to improve the overall user experience for users (i.e., on-site and remote attendees, speakers, potential sponsors, post-conference users). <br /> <br /> [[2019 Website Working Group Documents|2019 Website Working Group Documents]]<br /> <br /> * [[User:KaitlinNewson|Kaitlin Newson]], Scholars Portal - Primary Contact aka Chair<br /> * [[User:WhitniWatkins|Whitni Watkins]], Analog Devices, Inc. - Secondary Contact aka Co-Chair (if you want to volunteer and you've not served on any Code4Lib committees before, let me know, I'll step aside) <br /> * [[User:Phette23|Eric Phetteplace]], California College of the Arts - Local Planning Contact<br /> * [http://mailto:kndeibel@syr.edu Kate Deibel], Syracuse University Libraries - Documentarian<br /> * [[User:Ranti|Ranti Junus]], Michigan State University - Volunteer<br /> * [[User:jcoyne|Justin Coyne]], Stanford - Volunteer<br /> * [[User:AshleyBrewer|Ashley Brewer]], Virginia Commonwealth University - Volunteer<br /> * Cody Whitby, Virginia Commonwealth University - Volunteer<br /> * [[User:jgo|Joshua Gomez]], UCLA - Volunteer<br /> * Laura Chuang - Volunteer<br /> <br /> == Budget Committee ==<br /> This group will focus on making sure we are appropriately planning for budgetary issues. <br /> <br /> [[2019 Budget and Sponsorship Documents|2019 Budget and Sponsorship Documents]]<br /> <br /> * [mailto:swayh@oclc.org Hank Sway] - Primary Contact AKA Chair<br /> * [mailto:gmcharlt@gmail.com Galen Charlton] - Secondary Contact and Co-Chair (veteran of 2017 and 2018)<br /> * Mark Matienzo - Local Planning Contact <br /> * [mailto:gmcharlt@gmail.com Galen Charlton] - Documentarian (veteran of 2017 and 2018)<br /> * [mailto:bethany@clir.org Bethany Nowviskie] - ex officio, fiscal host (CLIR/DLF) <br /> * [mailto:chennesy@berkeley.edu Cody Hennesy]- Volunteer (UC Berkeley)<br /> <br /> == Sponsorship Committee ==<br /> This group involves working with the LPC and budget committee to close any budget gaps and talking to potential sponsors to find the level that is right for them.<br /> <br /> [[2019 Budget and Sponsorship Documents|2019 Budget and Sponsorship Documents]]<br /> <br /> * [mailto:matienzo@stanford.edu Mark Matienzo], Stanford University - Primary Contact aka Chair<br /> * [mailto:jeffreystephensabol@gmail.com Jeffrey Sabol], Long Beach City College - Secondary Contact aka Co-Chair<br /> * [mailto:nicole.esque@gmail.com Nicole Johnson] - Local Planning Contact <br /> * [mailto:dicossio@crimson.ua.edu Diana Cossio]- Documentarian <br /> * [mailto:mprice@calpoly.edu Mike Price] - Volunteer (Cal Poly)<br /> * [mailto:selizabethgreen@gmail.com Sarah Green] - Volunteer<br /> * [mailto:cmathieu@jpl.nasa.gov Camille Mathieu], JPL Library - Volunteer<br /> * [mailto:subrama@purdue.edu Annapurni Subramaniam], Purdue - Volunteer<br /> <br /> == Keynote Committee ==<br /> This group will: gather nominations from Code4Lib community;

We'll be discussing the recent Edmonton Public Library Open Data Day, and plans for the upcoming year. <br /> <br /> ===Second 2014 Meetup===<br /> We'll be meeting Thursday, July 31, at the Underground Tap &amp; Grill on Jasper Avenue. Topics up for discussion: hammering out the details of the Netspeed Hackfest, a second evening of lightning talks to be held in November, and organizing a fun, lighthearted debate around apps vs. responsive design.<br /> <br /> ===Netspeed Hackfest Planning Meeting===<br /> Code4Lib YEG will be hosting a Hackfest for the Netspeed conference on Wednesday, September 15th. If you are interested in helping to organize/pitching in on the day, please join us at Cafe 1912 on Whyte Ave, at 6:30 pm, next Wednesday, August 13, 2014.<br /> <br /> ===2013===<br /> <br /> ===Inaugural Meetup===<br /> <br /> The inaugural meetup of Code4Lib North - Edmonton will take place on Thursday, May 9, 2013, 6:00pm at The Underground, 10004 Jasper Ave, Edmonton. This will be a simple meet-and-greet to gauge interest levels for Code4Lib North in Edmonton. Everyone is welcome!<br /> <br /> ===Second Meetup===<br /> We'll be meeting again on Thursday, June 13. We've tentatively decided on going to the Underground again, but this may change (I'll post an update here if it does). This meeting will hopefully build on some of the ideas we had at our first meeting, and we can make the first steps towards organizing an activity of some kind.<br /> <br /> ===Third Meetup and Lightning Talk Planning Session===<br /> We're planning a lightning talk evening some time in November, so we should get together to plan it. We're going to meet at The Empress Ale House, 9912 82 Avenue, at 6 pm on Thursday, October 3rd. Hopefully we'll be able to knock out the basic planning for the lightning talk evening at this session.<br /> <br /> ===First Lightning Talk evening===<br /> Our first event - an evening of lightning talks and a tour of the new Edmonton Public Library makerspace - took place November 21st, 2014. We had really great turnout (especially given the cold and snowy weather) <br /> and heard from a wide variety of speakers on many topics of interest. We're looking forward to capitalizing on the interest in the new year. <br /> <br /> ===Contact Information===<br /> For information about Code4Lib YEG, please contact Sam Popowich (spopowich at gmail dot com).</div>
