Ideas for 2013

2012-02-07T17:52:44Z

Pgwillia: /* Suggestions from dchuds talk */

=Code4Lib 2013 ideas=

===Schedule===
# Keep Super Bowl Sunday free
# Avoid snow and bitter cold!

==Food==

# If you do the preconferences in the main conference space (vs. in spread-out off-site spots), many people will expect breakfast or at least regular coffee/tea/soft-drink breaks throughout the day (so have them?)
# Is it possible to get a hot breakfast with/instead of continental?
# Consider Vegetarians
# Decent lunch menu - not taco or spaghetti :-)
# Automated Testing

(Note: some attendees really like tacos and/or spaghetti, and think these are excellent lunch choices. YMMV.)

==Registration==
Use EventBrite--it's worth the admin money for the ease of use, and the reports that can be generated

==Suggestions from dchuds talk==

* less complacency from overall committee--less burden on local org committee
* Advisory committee
* Programming committee
* do work in the open
* build on experience from past conferences
* code4lib multicore

==Other ideas==
* more regional c4l
