===Location===
NECode4Lib meeting will be hosted by MIT.

'''When''' - Friday, May 29th

'''Where''' - MIT, [https://whereis.mit.edu/?go=34 Building 34], room 401A (Grier Room A).

'''Registration Cost''' - Free!

'''Registration Link'''
The event is sold out (70 registered attendees which is the max our room can accommodate).
You can join the waitlist via Eventbrite. We will release tickets as soon as anyone cancels. -- http://necode4lib2015.eventbrite.com

'''Planning Committee''' - Matt Bernhardt (matt.j.bernhardt@gmail.com), Jeremy Prevost (jprevost@mit.edu), Joe Montibello (joseph.montibello@dartmouth.edu), Matt Sherman (matt.r.sherman@gmail.com), Abigail Baines (abaines@hampshire.edu), Jennifer Eustis (Jennifer.Eustis@lib.uconn.edu), Sharon Clapp (sclapp@ccsu.edu), Andromeda Yelton (andromeda.yelton@gmail.com), David Mayo (pobocks@gmail.com), Maura Carbone (mauraa@brandeis.edu), Christina Harlow (cmh2166@columbia.edu)

===Logistics===
====Transportation====
* MIT can be reached by car, train, or bus.
* If you are going to drive all the way to campus, MIT's parking information can be found here: http://web.mit.edu/facilities/transportation/parking/visitors/public_parking.html
* Another popular option is to take the MBTA red line to campus, and get off at the Kendall/MIT stop. From there, it is a relatively short walk to building 34. On the map link above, the Kendall/MIT stop is just outside building E38. Parking is also available at the terminal stations on the red line - the easiest to reach if you are coming from outside Boston is probably Alewife in Arlington.
* If you're arriving via bus, there are a number of lines that run by campus. Consult the MBTA website (or Google Maps) for more information.
* We are also looking into helping arrange carpooling. More information to come.

====Hotels====
* If you're looking for a hotel room the night before / after, there are two hotels near campus - the [http://www.kendallhotel.com/ Kendall Hotel] and [http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/boscb-boston-marriott-cambridge/ Marriott Hotel], both on Main Street. There is no block of rooms, however, so please make whatever arrangements make sense for you.

2015 Craft Drinkup

2015-01-23T20:15:02Z

MauraCarbone: /* Signup */

When: Tuesday, February 10th - 7pm - 10pm (ish)

Where: eBay Offices - 1400 SW 5th Ave, Portland, OR 97201

The Craft Brew Drinkup at Code4lib 2015 is all about sharing and enjoying good beer, soda, and other drinks with fellow conference attendees. The idea is to bring bottles of your favorite beers or non-alcoholic drinks.

While you're not obligated to bring local brews from wherever you're from, participants are definitely encouraged to bring brews that you think is special and might be somewhat hard for others outside your area to find. Homebrew is especially welcome as are non-alcoholic beverages. There will be hot water available for those who want to bring in their tea blends as well!

This year, eBay has agreed to host the Code4Lib Drinkup at their offices in downtown Portland, a 6 block walk from the conference hotel. Attendees should expect to bring something to share, either drinks or snacks.

Please Note: The space must be cleaned up and all folks gone no later than 11pm.

Space is limited to the first 200 people who register.

== Signup ==

* Francis Kayiwa, Kayiwa Consulting , francis dot kayiwa at gmail dot com

Abstract:

[http://docker.io Docker] ([http://journal.code4lib.org/articles/9669 jbfink code4lib journal article]) is an open source Linux operating system-level virtualization framework that has seen great uptake over the past year. This workshop will take you through the basic features of Docker, including setup, importing of containers, development workflows and deploying. Knowing when Docker is useful and when it isn't will also be covered. Ideally, every attendee will have ample experience creating and running their own Docker instances by the end.

=== Code Retreat ===
'''Full Day'''

* Jeremy Friesen, University of Notre Dame, jfriesen at nd dot edu
* Additional facilitators welcome; Especially if you have CodeRetreat experience.

Abstract:

"Coderetreat is a day-long, intensive practice event, focusing on the fundamentals of software development and design.
By providing developers the opportunity to take part in focused practice, away from the pressures of 'getting things done', the coderetreat format has proven itself to be a highly effective means of skill improvement.
Practicing the basic principles of modular and object-oriented design, developers can improve their ability to write code that minimizes the cost of change over time." [http://coderetreat.org/about About Code Retreat]

'''"Half Day [Afternoon]"''' (but could be expanded based on interest)

* Chris Beer, Stanford University, cabeer@stanford.edu
* Additional facilitators welcome.

This is a preconference session intended for first time Code4Lib speakers, habitual procrastinators, experienced speakers, those thinking about offering lightning talks, etc. If you're preparing a talk for this year's Code4Lib, this workshop is an opportunity to rehearse your presentation, get feedback from peers, get familiar with the presentation technology, etc.

Hydra is a collaboration of over 30 educational institutions who work together to solve their repository needs by building open-source software. Dive into Hydra is a course that bootstraps you into the Hydra software framework. We'll start at the basics and walk you through the various layers of the Hydra stack. We'll conclude by installing the Worthwhile gem, enabling every participant to walk away with their own Institutional Repository. Participants who have prior exposure to web programming will get the most out of this course. It's recommended (but not required) that you attend "RailsBridge" prior to this workshop.
