As eye opening and enriching the conversation was, a 45 minute panel was not enough. One thing remains clear: We need to keep the conversation moving forward and start making some radical changes in the way we think, act, and how we need to harness this to start making real changes within librarianship itself.<br /> <br /> Topics to include: Fairness, bias, impostor syndrome, code of conducts, sexual harassment, training opportunities, support systems, mentoring, ally support, and more<br /> <br /> Those attending should expect: Begin with opening up the conversation of experiences and talking about what is most needed, spending remaining time putting together live, usable solutions to start implementing as well as pushing the conversation forward at local levels<br /> <br /> ''Interested in Attending''<br /> <br /> If you would be interested in attending, please indicate by adding your name (but not email address, etc.) here<br /> <br /> =====All Day=====<br /> 1.

After implementing a customized ingest workflow within the File Analyzer, the Georgetown University Libraries was able to process an ingest backlog of over a thousand files of digital resources into DigitalGeorgetown, the Libraries’ Digital Collections and Institutional Repository platform. Georgetown is currently developing customized workflows that integrate Apache Tika, BagIt, and Marc conversion utilities.<br /> <br /> The File Analyzer is a desktop application with a powerful framework for implementing customized file validation and transformation rules. As new rules are deployed, they are presented to users within a user interface that is easy (and powerful) to use.<br /> <br /> The first half of this session will be targeted to potential users and developers. The second half of the session will be targeted towards developers who are interested in developing custom rules for the application.<br /> <br /> ''Session Overview''<br /> * Overview of the application<br /> * Running sample file tests/transformations through the application<br /> * Compiling and building the application<br /> * Coding a custom file processing task<br /> <br /> <br /> ''Interested in Attending''<br /> <br /> If you would be interested in attending, please indicate by adding your name (but not email address, etc.) here<br /> <br /> ----<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Collecting social media data with Social Feed Manager===<br /> '''Half-Day [Morning]'''<br /> <br /> Contacts: <br /> * Dan Chudnov, GW Libraries, dchud (at) gwu.edu<br /> * Dan Kerchner, GW Libraries, kerchner (at) gwu.edu<br /> * Laura Wrubel, GW Libraries, lwrubel (at) gwu.edu<br /> <br /> Social media data is a popular material for research and a new format for building collections. What does it take to collect meaningfully from Twitter, Tumblr, YouTube, Weibo, Facebook, and other sites? We will:<br /> * Introduce options for collections, including both high- and low-end commercial offerings. Discuss what it means to collect these resources, covering boundaries, policies, and workflows required to develop a social media collection program in your institution.<br /> * Explore the Twitter API in depth, with hands-on opportunities for those w/laptops and others who want to team up w/them<br /> * Help you get started using the free [http://gwu-libraries.github.io/social-feed-manager Social Feed Manager] (SFM) app we're developing at GW to create your first collections.

Failures, both big and small, motivate us to create and improve. Failures are also occasionally the result of our work. Understanding and embracing failure, encouraging enlightened risk-taking, and seeking out opportunities to fail and learn are essential to success in our field. At Fail4Lib, we'll talk about our own experiences with projects gone wrong, explore some famous design failures in the real world, and talk about how we can come to terms with the reality of failure, to make it part of our creative process -- rather than something to be feared.<br /> <br /> The schedule may include the following:<br /> <br /> * Case studies. We'll look at some classic failures from the literature: What can we learn from the mistakes of others?<br /> * Confessionals, for those willing to share. Talk about your own experiences with rough starts, labor pains, and doomed projects in your own work: What can we learn from our own (and each others') failures?<br /> * Group therapy. Let's talk about how to deal with risk management, failed projects, experimental endeavors, and more: How can we make ourselves, our colleagues, and our organizations more fault tolerant? How do we make sure we fail as productively as possible?<br /> <br /> ''Interested in attending''<br /> <br /> If you would be interested in attending, please indicate by adding your name (but not email address, etc.) here<br /> <br /> #Bret Davidson<br /> <br /> <br /> ===CLLAM @ code4lib===<br /> '''(Computational Linguistics for Libraries, Archives and Museums)'''<br /> <br /> '''Full Day'''<br /> <br /> Contacts: <br /> * Douglas W.

Georgetown is currently developing customized workflows that integrate Apache Tika, BagIt, and Marc conversion utilities.<br /> <br /> The File Analyzer is a desktop application with a powerful framework for implementing customized file validation and transformation rules. As new rules are deployed, they are presented to users within a user interface that is easy (and powerful) to use.<br /> <br /> The first half of this session will be targeted to potential users and developers. The second half of the session will be targeted towards developers who are interested in developing custom rules for the application.<br /> <br /> ''Session Overview''<br /> * Overview of the application<br /> * Running sample file tests/transformations through the application<br /> * Compiling and building the application<br /> * Coding a custom file processing task<br /> <br /> <br /> ''Interested in Attending''<br /> <br /> If you would be interested in attending, please indicate by adding your name (but not email address, etc.) here<br /> <br /> ----<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Collecting social media data with Social Feed Manager===<br /> '''Half-Day [Morning]'''<br /> <br /> Contacts: <br /> * Dan Chudnov, GW Libraries, dchud (at) gwu.edu<br /> * Dan Kerchner, GW Libraries, kerchner (at) gwu.edu<br /> * Laura Wrubel, GW Libraries, lwrubel (at) gwu.edu<br /> <br /> Social media data is a popular material for research and a new format for building collections. What does it take to collect meaningfully from Twitter, Tumblr, YouTube, Weibo, Facebook, and other sites? We will:<br /> * Introduce options for collections, including both high- and low-end commercial offerings. Discuss what it means to collect these resources, covering boundaries, policies, and workflows required to develop a social media collection program in your institution.<br /> * Explore the Twitter API in depth, with hands-on opportunities for those w/laptops and others who want to team up w/them<br /> * Help you get started using the free [http://gwu-libraries.github.io/social-feed-manager Social Feed Manager] (SFM) app we're developing at GW to create your first collections. We’ll demo its use and demo a clean install (those w/environments can follow along)<br /> <br /> <br /> ''Interested in Attending''<br /> <br /> If you would be interested in attending, please indicate by adding your name (but not email address, etc.) here<br /> <br /> <br /> ----<br /> <br /> [[:Category:Code4Lib2014]]</div>

<p>Rosy1280: /* Participants */</p> <hr /> <div>== Overview ==<br /> <br /> The goal of the &quot;Project Rideshare Board&quot; was to create an application/environment/community to help enable institutions to collaborate on software development projects and foster technology mentorship/learning opportunities amongst libraries.<br /> <br /> One analogy of the project would be akin to http://kickstarter.com/, although rather than soliciting financial contribution (although that ''may'' be what a particular institution wishes to contribute, say, for contracting some work, etc.) institutions would pledge what expertise, roles, and time commitment they could provide to help bring the project to fruition.<br /> <br /> There was discussion over what the overall scope of what such an endeavor would entail; if and how libraries would break out of their current cultural habits of always going it alone; what technologies currently exist that could handle the needs of this; how participants would manage and mediate projects; and what would be needed to get started.<br /> <br /> At the end, we decided what is necessary is a system that allows a project proposer to:<br /> <br /> # Describe the project: what it is, some functional requirements, what &quot;completion&quot; means<br /> # What you're bringing to the table<br /> # What you need<br /> <br /> There would also be some best practices documentation to improve the chances of project success, usefulness to the broadest audience (without losing the needs of the original proposers), least duplication of effort, and reusability of code/features.<br /> <br /> We discussed the possibility of a core of volunteers that would keep an eye on projects and try to help keep the projects aligned with the best practices (if applicable) and perhaps lend guidance for certain groups.<br /> <br /> == Participants ==<br /> <br /> * Ross Singer<br /> * Rosalyn Metz<br /> *<br /> *<br /> *<br /> *<br /> <br /> == Next steps ==<br /> <br /> * Start a Google Group : DONE!

A lightning talk is a fast-paced 5 minute talk on a topic of your choosing. Sign-ups for lightning talks will open immediately following the first keynote.<br /> <br /> Mark Jason Dominus has a nice page [http://perl.plover.com/lt/lightning-talks.html about lightning talks], which includes this summary of why you might want to do one:<br /> <br /> ''Maybe you've never given a talk before, and you'd like to start small. For a Lightning Talk, you don't need to make slides, and if you do decide to make slides, you only need to make three.''<br /> <br /> ''Maybe you're nervous and you're afraid you'll mess up. It's a lot easier to plan and deliver a five minute talk than it is to deliver a long talk. And if you do mess up, at least the painful part will be over quickly.''<br /> <br /> ''Maybe you don't have much to say. Maybe you just want to ask a question, or invite people to help you with your project, or boast about something you did, or tell a short cautionary story. These things are all interesting and worth talking about, but there might not be enough to say about them to fill up thirty minutes.''<br /> <br /> You might also like Mark Fowler's's [http://www.perl.com/pub/2004/07/30/lightningtalk.html Advice for Giving a Lightning Talk].<br /> <br /> Have something to add but didn't get a chance to do it in Chicago?

Daley Library MC 234, 801 S. Morgan, Chicago) reserved for 7:30 on Tuesday the 11th. I'll try to show up at the lobby and hang out there for at about 7:15. I'll be the guy with a code4lib nametag and a box of games ;). Not sure how late we'll play, it looks like the library is open till 1:00am, but I suspect I will for now put a rough ending time of 11pm. <br /> <br /> (Note, there's also some discussion on Cards Against Humanity. I will try to make sure there's an alternative game, but I don't know if I want to prohibit any games. I would say though to remember to be respectful and courteous to those around you. I will probably be pondering this issue for a while)<br /> <br /> <br /> The original list of people who signed up is below.<br /> <br /> I (Jon Gorman) will bring some board games and pick up some cards. Add your name to the list below if you're interested in attending. Also not if you can bring games. Bringing games is NOT REQUIRED. If you can bring a game you can teach, that's great and will make sure we're not just stuck playing the games I bring.<br /> <br /> (I've added some comments to the game lists below)<br /> * jtgorman, aka Jon Gorman: I'll bring Time's Up: Total Recall, Tsuro, Hey, That's My Fish, Hive, and some more I haven't decided on yet. (My profile over at http://www.boardgamegeek.com/ is jtgorman as well if you want to browse my games and make requests)<br /> * yo_bj: I have some games I can bring as well (Kill Doctor Lucky, Fluxx, Godzilla: Stomp, Munchkin Zombies, etc.). Monday doesn't have anything major planned... <br /> *danwho: I 'll bring the Cards Against Humanity set.<br /> *escowles (Mon/Tue preferred): I've got lots of games I could bring like Settlers of Catan, Carcassonne, Ticket to Ride, Age of Renaissance, Elfenland, Agricola, Le Havre, Smallworld, RoboRally, etc. etc. <br /> ** Take your pick! All good games. I'll try to finalize my list of games before Friday - JonG <br /> *jen_young: I'm local and I have quite a few games. Just about every version of Fluxx, Bananagrams, Gloom, Munchkin Cthulu,Cards Against Humanity, Apples to Apples, Risk, Last Night on Earth, etc.) <br /> **All good games! If you don't mind bringing a box that would be awesome. I particularly like Apples to Apples, Last Night on Earth and Gloom - JonG<br /> * decasm: Interested in Go (aka igo, weiqi, baduk) anytime, not just game night. I can do Catan as well. (And as much as I love it, Cards Against Humanity is probably a violation of the new Code of Conduct.) <br /> ** I look forward to losing my first game of Go to you ;) - JonG<br /> ** I'd love to learn Go. &lt;del&gt;Perhaps after the newcomer dinner?&lt;/del&gt; Oof... won't make for Tues. But would still be interested to learn. --ranti.<br /> * csharp: I'm interested in playing games - whatever people bring. I almost always travel with a pack or two of playing cards ;-). Monday or Tuesday nights are fine.<br /> * moneill: I would love to join in! I have a version of Catchphrase floating around somewhere, and I think I have Battleship...I need to go weed around in that drawer and see what else presents itself. Tuesday would be my preferred night, but I will make it work! <br /> ** Don't worry too much about bringing a game if transportation is a problem. One thing I've done w/ stuff like catchphrase is not take the box but to put pieces and cards in a bag - JOn G<br /> * demiankatz: I'm always up for a game. I'm hoping to travel light so probably shouldn't bring anything, but if there's a local game shop, I might be persuaded to pick up something new as a souvenir. <br /> ** Don't worry, I think there will be plenty of games - JonG<br /> * sekjal: I've got [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/36218/dominion Dominion], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/68448/7-wonders 7 Wonders], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/30933/bang-the-bullet Bang!], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/18333/ecofluxx EcoFluxx] and [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/116/guillotine Guillotine] that I can bring. ++ on Cards against Humanity!

Unfortunately, I have no games to contribute.<br /> ** No prob.<br /> * sanderson: I would be interested. I can bring [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/478/citadels Citadels] (2-7 players)<br /> ** Citadels would be awesome and means I don't have to bring it ;) - JonG<br /> * dvdndrsn: Definitely in! Can bring Innovation, Tichu, Dominion, but Cards Against Humanity sounds good. <br /> ** I'll put in a vote for Tichu, heard good things about it - Jon G <br /> * smkiewel: I'm likely to join. Can bring Arkham Horror and Munchkin.<br /> ** Arkham Horror seems rather bulky to travel with, but if you want to play bring it ;) - Jon G<br /> ** mbutler: If someone actually brings Arkham Horror I'd throw down. Otherwise, whateve. <br /> * jkwilson: I'd like to attend Monday or Tuesday. I have a bunch of games but I'd prefer not to travel with them, and anyway it sounds like they're covered above. I'll bring the 5-6 player Catan extension.<br /> * ejlynema: Interested, but will probably attend Newcomer dinner on Tuesday. Like Dominion and 7 Wonders, but probably don't have room to bring in suitcase. Anyone bringing Tsuro? <br /> ** I can bring Tsuro - Jon G<br /> * Christie Peterson (save4use): Also interested, but also probably attending newcomer dinner on Tuesday. Can bring [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/11/bohnanza Bohnanza] and one deck of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_%28game%29 Set]. <br /> **Bohnanza and Set would be awesome - JonG<br /> **Done! I will bring them both -- C<br /> * dgcliff: I'd be interested. Can bring Ticket to Ride.<br /> * mbklein: definitely interested. Will check on my (currently unpacked) games. I am dying to play Cards Against Humanity. If we can't find a way to reconcile it with the Code of Conduct, we need a different Code of Conduct.<br /> ** Considering that this is a public event, and that no one knows everyone's sensitivity levels in the room, it might not be a good idea to break out a crass, adult version of apples to apples in the middle of the gaming room. :cP (yo_bj)<br /> * duspal: In. My board game collection is small but mighty (Arkham Horror, Catan, Vampire: Prince of the City, Deadlands: Battle for Slaughter Gulch, Arabian Nights, Diplomacy, Shogun, and Cosmic Encounter off the top of my head, amongst a few others). Let me know ahead of time if anyone is interested, since they're all relatively big... <br /> ** If you really want to play Cosmic Encounter, I can bring my copy (Fantasy Flight edition, 3 expansions), just let me know - JonG<br /> *librarywebchic: I'm willing to bring a set and teach folks how to play Majhong. Need at least three to play though.<br /> **beatricep: Uno gets no respect. ;-) @librarywebchic: I have always wanted to learn to play Majhong. If you're still bringing it, I'm in!<br /> ** Agreed, I don't know Majhong and I love learning new games. - JonG<br /> ** I actually know a few different rule sets. It's too bad I don't have a travel set or I'd bring a 2nd one -Arty<br /> ** I'm local and can bring a mahjong set. I've had no one to play with for years, so have probably forgotten how. -Linda B<br /> * jcraitz: I'm in after the newcomer dinner. I'll bring Citadels and Bang! <br /> **I think someone higher in the list offered to bring citadels, but won't hurt to have two copies just in case one of you don't show ;) - JonG<br /> **Aww no. left my games at the office. Looks like I'll have to jump in someone else's game.<br /> * julia: I'll be the freeloader who showed up and didn't bring any games.<br /> * kenirwin: interested in attending<br /> * sdellis: attending<br /> * ianc: interested in attending, a little rusty but definitely up for a couple rounds of Mahjong, also want to try something new too!<br /> * haschart: Interested in attending, if I can make it work with the newcomer dinner. Big fan of Dominion lately, but probably cannot bring it `cause the &quot;Big Box&quot; with the base game and two expansion sets is bigger than my suitcase. I could bring &quot;Race for the Galaxy&quot; if there's any interest.<br /> * jessebrown: Interested in attending.

List your name if you're interested, whether Sunday, Monday, and/or Tuesday (after newcomer dinners) work, and whether you're just interested in stopping by, or doing a 7 cocktail tasting flight.*<br /> ** statsfool: sunday/monday/tuesday, either drinks or flight.<br /> ** Amyhannah: monday/tuesday, drinks, probably not the flight.<br /> ** anarchivist: sunday/monday, prefer drinks over flight but could be convinced<br /> ** [[User:highermath|highermath]]: monday (could use 10 cocktails after Drupal subCon, I am sure). Uber now works in Chicago, so I would do the flight.<br /> ** [[User:pberry|pberry]]: any night but Wednesday (that's Goose Island night) and I'd be up for drinks or flight, although leaning away from flight.<br /> ** [[User:thatandromeda|thatandromeda]] oh my gosh yes, any time, probably not the flight.<br /> ** [[User:Gdave|gdave]] beautiful site, I would be interested, Sun,Mon,Tues. either drink or flight.<br /> ** [[User:shawnc12|shawnc12]]: sunday/monday, either drink or flight<br /> ** wdenton: any night, either drink or flight<br /> ** beatricep: sunday/monday drink, highly susceptible to flight by peer pressure..<br /> ** ryan hess: sunday/monday drink or flight<br /> ** infosoph: sunday/monday yes/yes!!<br /> ** [[User:Pfeeley|Pfeeley]]: sunday/monday/tuesday, either drink or flight<br /> ** [[User:Ksprague|Ksprague]]: sunday/monday/tuesday, drink or flight<br /> * Brewery tour - some possible candidates would be Goose Island, Brew Bus http://www.chicagobrewbus.com/, Piece, Revolution, Half Acre.<br /> * Library field trips - because we're library geeks. Possible places include Newberry and Read/Write.--Read/Write Library confirmed for February 12.--Newberry Library confirmed for February 14.<br /> * Art Institute of Chicago - Only open until 5pm, but possible for people coming in early enough on Sunday. There seems to be enough interest here to actually have a group, when and where should we meet? I added my email so that we could discuss details off the wiki.<br /> ** escowles: I'm getting in around noon on Sunday, and interested in this.<br /> ** pgrayove at gmail dot com: I'm getting in around noon on Sunday too. I'm interested.<br /> ** ranti: And I am. <br /> ** Ksprague: I'm getting in around noon, and am also interested.<br /> * Local Option http://localoptionbier.com/ - So you've heard of Hopleaf, you've heard of Maproom. Come to Chicago's *ahem* best kept secret for good food and an evening session on Monday. We will need a tally to make requisite arrangements. Target for arrival at bar: 7ish. Probably a group gathering to head north around 6:30 in hotel lobby (if you want to take the #8 Halsted bus that is).<br /> ** kayiwa<br /> ** Linda Ballinger<br /> ** Courtney Greene<br /> ** John Pillans<br /> ** +6 from NCSU incl one Bret Davidson<br /> ** Megan Kudzia<br /> ** Andrew Darby<br /> ** erinrwhite<br /> ** [[User:ianc|Ian Chan]]<br /> ** Ranti Junus<br /> ** Will Clarke<br /> ** Cody Hanson<br /> ** Jesse Brown<br /> <br /> == Planned Events ==<br /> <br /> === Newcomer Dinner, Tuesday 2/12 ===<br /> <br /> First time at code4lib?

Still getting some details, but here's what we know:<br /> <br /> Game Night! Type of games might vary due to interest and what people bring. Looks like interest right now is mostly on light to mediumish games with a dash of abstracts ;). <br /> <br /> <br /> We have a conference room at the UIC library (Richard J. Daley Library MC 234, 801 S. Morgan, Chicago) reserved for 7:30 on Tuesday the 11th. I'll try to show up at the lobby and hang out there for at about 7:15. I'll be the guy with a code4lib nametag and a box of games ;). Not sure how late we'll play, it looks like the library is open till 1:00am, but I suspect I will for now put a rough ending time of 11pm. <br /> <br /> (Note, there's also some discussion on Cards Against Humanity. I will try to make sure there's an alternative game, but I don't know if I want to prohibit any games. I would say though to remember to be respectful and courteous to those around you. I will probably be pondering this issue for a while)<br /> <br /> I (Jon Gorman) will bring some board games and pick up some cards. Add your name to the list below if you're interested in attending. Also not if you can bring games. Bringing games is NOT REQUIRED. If you can bring a game you can teach, that's great and will make sure we're not just stuck playing the games I bring.<br /> <br /> (I've added some comments to the game lists below)<br /> * jtgorman, aka Jon Gorman: I'll bring Time's Up: Total Recall, Tsuro, Hey, That's My Fish, Hive, and some more I haven't decided on yet. (My profile over at http://www.boardgamegeek.com/ is jtgorman as well if you want to browse my games and make requests)<br /> * yo_bj: I have some games I can bring as well (Kill Doctor Lucky, Fluxx, Godzilla: Stomp, Munchkin Zombies, etc.). Monday doesn't have anything major planned... <br /> *danwho: I 'll bring the Cards Against Humanity set.<br /> *escowles (Mon/Tue preferred): I've got lots of games I could bring like Settlers of Catan, Carcassonne, Ticket to Ride, Age of Renaissance, Elfenland, Agricola, Le Havre, Smallworld, RoboRally, etc. etc. <br /> ** Take your pick! All good games. I'll try to finalize my list of games before Friday - JonG <br /> *jen_young: I'm local and I have quite a few games. Just about every version of Fluxx, Bananagrams, Gloom, Munchkin Cthulu,Cards Against Humanity, Apples to Apples, Risk, Last Night on Earth, etc.) <br /> **All good games! If you don't mind bringing a box that would be awesome. I particularly like Apples to Apples, Last Night on Earth and Gloom - JonG<br /> * decasm: Interested in Go (aka igo, weiqi, baduk) anytime, not just game night. I can do Catan as well. (And as much as I love it, Cards Against Humanity is probably a violation of the new Code of Conduct.) <br /> ** I look forward to losing my first game of Go to you ;) - JonG<br /> ** I'd love to learn Go. &lt;del&gt;Perhaps after the newcomer dinner?&lt;/del&gt; Oof... won't make for Tues. But would still be interested to learn. --ranti.<br /> * csharp: I'm interested in playing games - whatever people bring. I almost always travel with a pack or two of playing cards ;-). Monday or Tuesday nights are fine.<br /> * moneill: I would love to join in! I have a version of Catchphrase floating around somewhere, and I think I have Battleship...I need to go weed around in that drawer and see what else presents itself. Tuesday would be my preferred night, but I will make it work! <br /> ** Don't worry too much about bringing a game if transportation is a problem. One thing I've done w/ stuff like catchphrase is not take the box but to put pieces and cards in a bag - JOn G<br /> * demiankatz: I'm always up for a game. I'm hoping to travel light so probably shouldn't bring anything, but if there's a local game shop, I might be persuaded to pick up something new as a souvenir. <br /> ** Don't worry, I think there will be plenty of games - JonG<br /> * sekjal: I've got [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/36218/dominion Dominion], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/68448/7-wonders 7 Wonders], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/30933/bang-the-bullet Bang!], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/18333/ecofluxx EcoFluxx] and [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/116/guillotine Guillotine] that I can bring. ++ on Cards against Humanity! Prefer non-conflict with beer night. <br /> ** Also all good games. I have 7 Wonders, but can bring some other games if you bring that. - Jon G<br /> * arty: so totally interested. Unfortunately, I have no games to contribute.<br /> ** No prob.<br /> * sanderson: I would be interested. I can bring [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/478/citadels Citadels] (2-7 players)<br /> ** Citadels would be awesome and means I don't have to bring it ;) - JonG<br /> * dvdndrsn: Definitely in! Can bring Innovation, Tichu, Dominion, but Cards Against Humanity sounds good. <br /> ** I'll put in a vote for Tichu, heard good things about it - Jon G <br /> * smkiewel: I'm likely to join. Can bring Arkham Horror and Munchkin.<br /> ** Arkham Horror seems rather bulky to travel with, but if you want to play bring it ;) - Jon G<br /> ** mbutler: If someone actually brings Arkham Horror I'd throw down. Otherwise, whateve. <br /> * jkwilson: I'd like to attend Monday or Tuesday. I have a bunch of games but I'd prefer not to travel with them, and anyway it sounds like they're covered above. I'll bring the 5-6 player Catan extension.<br /> * ejlynema: Interested, but will probably attend Newcomer dinner on Tuesday. Like Dominion and 7 Wonders, but probably don't have room to bring in suitcase. Anyone bringing Tsuro? <br /> ** I can bring Tsuro - Jon G<br /> * Christie Peterson (save4use): Also interested, but also probably attending newcomer dinner on Tuesday. Can bring [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/11/bohnanza Bohnanza] and one deck of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_%28game%29 Set]. <br /> **Bohnanza and Set would be awesome - JonG<br /> * dgcliff: I'd be interested. Can bring Ticket to Ride.<br /> * mbklein: definitely interested. Will check on my (currently unpacked) games. I am dying to play Cards Against Humanity. If we can't find a way to reconcile it with the Code of Conduct, we need a different Code of Conduct.<br /> ** Considering that this is a public event, and that no one knows everyone's sensitivity levels in the room, it might not be a good idea to break out a crass, adult version of apples to apples in the middle of the gaming room. :cP (yo_bj)<br /> * duspal: In. My board game collection is small but mighty (Arkham Horror, Catan, Vampire: Prince of the City, Deadlands: Battle for Slaughter Gulch, Arabian Nights, Diplomacy, Shogun, and Cosmic Encounter off the top of my head, amongst a few others). Let me know ahead of time if anyone is interested, since they're all relatively big... <br /> ** If you really want to play Cosmic Encounter, I can bring my copy (Fantasy Flight edition, 3 expansions), just let me know - JonG<br /> *librarywebchic: I'm willing to bring a set and teach folks how to play Majhong. Need at least three to play though.<br /> **beatricep: Uno gets no respect. ;-) @librarywebchic: I have always wanted to learn to play Majhong. If you're still bringing it, I'm in!<br /> ** Agreed, I don't know Majhong and I love learning new games. - JonG<br /> ** I actually know a few different rule sets. It's too bad I don't have a travel set or I'd bring a 2nd one -Arty<br /> ** I'm local and can bring a mahjong set. I've had no one to play with for years, so have probably forgotten how. -Linda B<br /> * jcraitz: I'm in after the newcomer dinner. I'll bring Citadels and Bang! <br /> **I think someone higher in the list offered to bring citadels, but won't hurt to have two copies just in case one of you don't show ;) - JonG<br /> * julia: I'll be the freeloader who showed up and didn't bring any games.<br /> * kenirwin: interested in attending<br /> * sdellis: attending<br /> * ianc: interested in attending, a little rusty but definitely up for a couple rounds of Mahjong, also want to try something new too!<br /> * haschart: Interested in attending, if I can make it work with the newcomer dinner. Big fan of Dominion lately, but probably cannot bring it `cause the &quot;Big Box&quot; with the base game and two expansion sets is bigger than my suitcase.

Daley Library, 9:00 am to 12:00 pm on Monday, February 11====<br /> * Joshua Gomez, George Washington University, jngomez at gwu edu<br /> <br /> Since Google published its paper on BigTable in 2006, alternatives to the traditional relational database model have been growing in both variety and popularity. These new databases (often referred to as NoSQL databases) excel at handling problems faced by modern information systems that the traditional relational model cannot. They are particularly popular among organizations tackling the so-called &quot;Big Data&quot; problems. However, there are always tradeoffs involved when making such dramatic changes. Understanding how these different kinds of databases are designed and what they can offer is essential to the decision making process. In this precon I will discuss some of the various types of new databases (key-value, columnar, document, graph) and walk through examples or exercises using some of their open source implementations like Riak, HBase, MongoDB, and Neo4j.<br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * Esha Datta<br /> * Trevor Thornton<br /> * Michael Doran<br /> * Ray Schwartz - schwartzr2@wpunj.edu<br /> * Kevin Clarke<br /> * Andreas Orphanides<br /> * Tommy Ingulfsen - tommying{at}caltech{dot}edu<br /> * Harrison Dekker<br /> * Eric James eric dot james at yale dot edu<br /> * Sean Crowe - sean.crowe@uc.edu<br /> * Scott Hanrath - shanrath@ku.edu<br /> * Erin Fahy - erin.fahy at mtholyoke edu<br /> * Karen Coyle - kcoyle at kcoyle.net<br /> * Charles Draper<br /> * David Uspal<br /> * Shawn Kiewel - smkiewel at uga dot edu<br /> * Stephanie Collett - stephanie dot collett at ucop dot edu<br /> * Declan Fleming - declan at declan dot net<br /> * David Gonzalez - d.gonzalez26 at umiami dot edu<br /> * Jeff Peterson - gpeterso at umn dot edu<br /> * May Chan - msuicat at gmail dot com<br /> * Kathryn Stine - kathryn dot stine at ucop dot edu<br /> * Tim Thompson - t.thompson5{at}miami{dot}edu<br /> * Eben English - eenglish [at] bpl dot org<br /> * Marisa Strong - marisa dot strong at ucop dot edu<br /> * Michael Lindsey - mackeral at gmail dot com<br /> * Mike Hagedon - hagedonm at u dot library dot arizona dot edu<br /> * Scott Fisher - first/last name with dot in between at ucop dot edu<br /> * James Griffin - griffinj at lafayette dot edu<br /> * Jesse Brown - jfbrown78 at gmail dot com<br /> * [[User:gdave|Dave Green]] david dot L dot green at dartmouth dot edu<br /> * Michael Poltorak Nielsen mn at statsbiblioteket dot dk<br /> * Mads Villadsen, mv@statsbiblioteket.dk<br /> * Jørn Thøgersen, jt@statsbiblioteket.dk<br /> * Julien Gibert, gibert at abes dot fr<br /> * Lisa Gonzalez, lgonzalez@ctu.edu<br /> * Charles Ledvina, charles@indexdata.com<br /> * Jim LeFager, jlefager@depaul.edu<br /> * Debbie Maron, dmaron@purdue.edu<br /> * Carolina Garcia - cg116 nyu<br /> * Tracy Seneca- tjseneca@uic.edu<br /> * William Denton - wtd@pobox.com<br /> * Andrew Darby - agdarby at miami dot edu<br /> * Gary Maixner maixner2 at uiuc dot edu<br /> * Jeremy Prevost<br /> * Esther Verreau everreau skokielibrary info<br /> * Matthew Short, mshort@niu.edu<br /> * Kate Flynn, kef@uic.edu<br /> * Jon Stroop - jstroop at princeton<br /> * Mark Redar<br /> <br /> ==Half Day Afternoon==<br /> === Data Visualization Hackfest ===<br /> ====1-470 Richard J.

Leveraging Blacklight as its front end discovery interface, the hydra project provides a suite of software components, data models, and design patterns for building a robust and sustainable digital repository, as well as a community of support for ongoing development. This workshop will provide an introduction to the hydra project and its software components. Attendees will leave with enough knowledge to get started building their own local repository solutions. This workshop will be led by Adam Wead of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. <br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * Jeremy Prevost<br /> * Dennis Ogg - ogg{at}ucar{dot}edu<br /> * Terry Brady<br /> * Betsy Coles - bcoles{at}caltech{dot}edu<br /> * Brendan Quinn - brendan-quinn at northwestern dot edu<br /> * Shawn Kiewel - smkiewel at uga dot edu<br /> * Steven Villereal – villereal{at}gmail{dot}com<br /> * Ryan Eby<br /> * Dean Farrell<br /> * Ian Chan<br /> * Mark Mounts - mark{dot}mounts{at}dartmouth{dot}edu<br /> * Carl Jones<br /> * Laney McGlohon - lmcglohon@getty.edu<br /> * Nancy Enneking - nenneking@getty.edu<br /> * Allan Berry - allan{dot}berry{at}gmail{dot}com<br /> * Andrew Darby - agdarby at miami dot edu<br /> * Kåre Fiedler Christiansen - kfc@statsbiblioteket.dk<br /> * Corey Harper - corey dot harper at nyu dot edu<br /> * Gary Maixner - maixner2 at uiuc dot edu<br /> * Sibyl Schaefer - sibylschaefer at gmail dot com<br /> * Emily F.

It is used by institutions such as Stanford University, NC State, WGBH, Johns Hopkins University, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and an ever expanding community of adopters and contributors. Blacklight can be used as a front-end discovery solution for an ILS, or the contents of a digital repository, or to provide a unified discovery solution for many siloed collections. In this workshop we will cover the basics of solr indexing and searching, setting up and customizing Blacklight, and leave time for Q&amp;A around local issues people might encounter. <br /> <br /> Note: this workshop will be tailored as a follow-on to the morning's RailsBridge Intro to Ruby on Rails workshop, but everyone is welcome<br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * John MacGillivray<br /> * Jon Stroop<br /> * Jeremy Morse - jgmorse at umich<br /> * Karen Miller - k-miller3{at}northwestern{dot}edu<br /> * Tommy Ingulfsen - tommying{at}caltech{dot}edu<br /> * Chung Kang<br /> * Santi Thompson<br /> * Brandon Dudley<br /> * Ken Irwin<br /> * Hillel Arnold<br /> * Heidi Frank - hf36{at}nyu{dot}com<br /> * Chris Sharp - csharp{at}georgialibraries{dot}org<br /> * Bill McMillin - wmcmilli{at} pratt{dot} edu<br /> * Jason Raitz - jcraitz at ncsu dot edu<br /> * Linda Ballinger - ballingerl at newberry dot org<br /> * Tim Thompson - t.thompson5{at}miami{dot}edu<br /> * David Gonzalez - d.gonzalez26 at umiami dot edu<br /> * Courtney Greene - crgreene at indiana dot edu<br /> * Evan Boyd - eboyd /at/ ctschicago /period/ edu<br /> * Lauren Ajamie - lauren dot ajamie at nd dot edu<br /> * David Anderson - david dot anderson3 at nih dot gov<br /> * Michael Lindsey - mackeral at gmail dot com<br /> * David Bucknum - dabu at loc dot gov<br /> * Chris Day - cday2 at saic dot edu<br /> * Carolina Garcia - cg116 nyu<br /> * David Cliff dgcliff@iu.edu<br /> * Cody Hanson codyhanson@umn.edu<br /> * Sean Purcell seanpurc{at}uga{dot}edu<br /> * Laurie Lee Moses lmoses{at}colum{dot}edu<br /> * Alisak Sanavongsay asanavongsay{at}ucmerced.edu<br /> * Wayne Schneider wschneider at hclib dot org<br /> * Carolyn Caizzi carolyn{dot}caizzi{at}northwestern{dot}edu<br /> * Julie Rudder - j-rudder at northwestern dot edu<br /> * Andromeda Yelton - andromeda.yelton at gmail<br /> * Adam Strohm - adamstrohm at gmail dot com<br /> * Luke Gaudreau - luke underscore gaudreau at harvard dot edu<br /> <br /> === DPLA Intro/Hacking ===<br /> ====Seminar Room A of Richard J.

All API queries are returned as JSON-LD, a lightweight linked data format, and the metadata is freely reusable under a CC0 public domain license. A front-end portal is currently under development and will be launched in April 2013, though it will serve as but one way into the DPLA’s data. The DPLA encourages the development of applications and tools by developers of all skill levels and backgrounds. In this workshop, participants will actively code against the API to make apps, visualization tools, plug-ins, and other interesting tools that make use of DPLA data. <br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * First and last name, Affiliation<br /> * Justin Clark, Berkman Center for Internet and Society<br /> * Anita Patel, Berkman Center for Internet and Society<br /> * Peter Murray, LYRASIS<br /> <br /> '''I plan on making:'''<br /> * App name (your name): app description<br /> <br /> === Fail4lib ===<br /> ====1-360 Richard J. Daley Library, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====<br /> * Jason Casden, NCSU Libraries (jmcasden at ncsu.edu)<br /> * Andreas Orphanides, NCSU Libraries (akorphan at ncsu.edu)<br /> <br /> The Code4lib community is full of driven people who embrace the risks that are often associated with new projects. While these traits lead to the incredible projects that are presented at Code4lib, creative technical work also often leads to unexpected, vexing, or disappointing results even from eventually successful projects (however you define the term). Learning more about how our colleagues deal with failure in various contexts could lead to the development of better methods for communicating the value of productive failure, modifying project plans (&quot;The Pivot&quot;), and failing more cheaply.<br /> <br /> Hopefully we can define the format as a group, but a fairly high level of participation is crucial if this is to be a worthwhile preconference. Some possible agenda items that could be mixed and matched to fill the afternoon:<br /> <br /> # Given willing presenters, a series of 10-20 minute presentations that go into some depth about specific failures.<br /> # Depending on the number of participants, either a multi- or single-track series of unconference-like themed discussions on various aspects of failure, possibly including themes like:<br /> #* Technical failure<br /> #* Failure to effectively address a real user need<br /> #* Overinvestment<br /> #* Outreach/Promotion failure<br /> #* Design/UX failure<br /> #* Project team communication failure<br /> #* Missed opportunities (risk-averse failure)<br /> #* Successes gleaned from failures<br /> # A panel of participants who have prepared in advance to answer moderator and audience questions about their experience with failure.<br /> # A prepared reading assignment that we could all forget to read, creating a shared fail in order to start the preconference on the right foot.<br /> <br /> I'll serve as a moderator (if needed) and participant and would welcome more organizers. I am happy to be outvoted by participants on any of these points--I just want to get us talking about our screw-ups, blind spots, and anvils dropping from the sky.<br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * Becky Yoose<br /> * Lisa Rabey<br /> * Cynthia Ng (maybe) - cynthia [dot] s [dot] ng [at] gmail<br /> * Patrick Berry, pberry@csuchico.edu<br /> * Erin White, erwhite at vcu edu<br /> * Ranti Junus, ranti.junus at gmail<br /> * Rosalyn Metz -- rosalynmetz at gmail com<br /> <br /> === Solr 4 In Depth ===<br /> ====UIC Forum, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====<br /> * Contact: Erik Hatcher (erik.hatcher at lucidworks.com)<br /> <br /> The long awaited and much anticipated Solr 4 has been released!

Daley Library, 9:00 am to 12:00 pm on Monday, February 11====<br /> * Joshua Gomez, George Washington University, jngomez at gwu edu<br /> <br /> Since Google published its paper on BigTable in 2006, alternatives to the traditional relational database model have been growing in both variety and popularity. These new databases (often referred to as NoSQL databases) excel at handling problems faced by modern information systems that the traditional relational model cannot. They are particularly popular among organizations tackling the so-called &quot;Big Data&quot; problems. However, there are always tradeoffs involved when making such dramatic changes. Understanding how these different kinds of databases are designed and what they can offer is essential to the decision making process. In this precon I will discuss some of the various types of new databases (key-value, columnar, document, graph) and walk through examples or exercises using some of their open source implementations like Riak, HBase, MongoDB, and Neo4j.<br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * Esha Datta<br /> * Trevor Thornton<br /> * Michael Doran<br /> * Ray Schwartz - schwartzr2@wpunj.edu<br /> * Kevin Clarke<br /> * Andreas Orphanides<br /> * Tommy Ingulfsen - tommying{at}caltech{dot}edu<br /> * Harrison Dekker<br /> * Eric James eric dot james at yale dot edu<br /> * Sean Crowe - sean.crowe@uc.edu<br /> * Scott Hanrath - shanrath@ku.edu<br /> * Erin Fahy - erin.fahy at mtholyoke edu<br /> * Karen Coyle - kcoyle at kcoyle.net<br /> * Charles Draper<br /> * David Uspal<br /> * Shawn Kiewel - smkiewel at uga dot edu<br /> * Stephanie Collett - stephanie dot collett at ucop dot edu<br /> * Declan Fleming - declan at declan dot net<br /> * David Gonzalez - d.gonzalez26 at umiami dot edu<br /> * Jeff Peterson - gpeterso at umn dot edu<br /> * May Chan - msuicat at gmail dot com<br /> * Kathryn Stine - kathryn dot stine at ucop dot edu<br /> * Tim Thompson - t.thompson5{at}miami{dot}edu<br /> * Eben English - eenglish [at] bpl dot org<br /> * Marisa Strong - marisa dot strong at ucop dot edu<br /> * Michael Lindsey - mackeral at gmail dot com<br /> * Mike Hagedon - hagedonm at u dot library dot arizona dot edu<br /> * Scott Fisher - first/last name with dot in between at ucop dot edu<br /> * James Griffin - griffinj at lafayette dot edu<br /> * Jesse Brown - jfbrown78 at gmail dot com<br /> * [[User:gdave|Dave Green]] david dot L dot green at dartmouth dot edu<br /> * Michael Poltorak Nielsen mn at statsbiblioteket dot dk<br /> * Mads Villadsen, mv@statsbiblioteket.dk<br /> * Jørn Thøgersen, jt@statsbiblioteket.dk<br /> * Julien Gibert, gibert at abes dot fr<br /> * Lisa Gonzalez, lgonzalez@ctu.edu<br /> * Charles Ledvina, charles@indexdata.com<br /> * Jim LeFager, jlefager@depaul.edu<br /> * Debbie Maron, dmaron@purdue.edu<br /> * Carolina Garcia - cg116 nyu<br /> * Tracy Seneca- tjseneca@uic.edu<br /> * William Denton - wtd@pobox.com<br /> * Andrew Darby - agdarby at miami dot edu<br /> * Gary Maixner maixner2 at uiuc dot edu<br /> * Jeremy Prevost<br /> * Esther Verreau everreau skokielibrary info<br /> * Matthew Short, mshort@niu.edu<br /> * Kate Flynn, kef@uic.edu<br /> * Jon Stroop - jstroop at princeton<br /> * Mark Redar<br /> <br /> ==Half Day Afternoon==<br /> === Data Visualization Hackfest ===<br /> ====1-470 Richard J.

We propose a half-day hackfest with a focus on visualization library data -- think stuff like library catalog data, access/circulation statistics, etc. Here's how it works, roughly: <br /> - we'll (you'll!) do lightning tutorials for some data visualization tools, toolkits (R? d3js? ?), datasets.<br /> - we'll separate into groups and hack on stuff.<br /> - at the end of the day, we'll present our progress.<br /> <br /> Not a code hacker?

Hydra provides a versatile and feature rich environment for end-users and repository administrators alike. Leveraging Blacklight as its front end discovery interface, the hydra project provides a suite of software components, data models, and design patterns for building a robust and sustainable digital repository, as well as a community of support for ongoing development. This workshop will provide an introduction to the hydra project and its software components. Attendees will leave with enough knowledge to get started building their own local repository solutions.

It is used by institutions such as Stanford University, NC State, WGBH, Johns Hopkins University, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and an ever expanding community of adopters and contributors. Blacklight can be used as a front-end discovery solution for an ILS, or the contents of a digital repository, or to provide a unified discovery solution for many siloed collections. In this workshop we will cover the basics of solr indexing and searching, setting up and customizing Blacklight, and leave time for Q&amp;A around local issues people might encounter. <br /> <br /> Note: this workshop will be tailored as a follow-on to the morning's RailsBridge Intro to Ruby on Rails workshop, but everyone is welcome<br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * John MacGillivray<br /> * Jon Stroop<br /> * Jeremy Morse - jgmorse at umich<br /> * Karen Miller - k-miller3{at}northwestern{dot}edu<br /> * Tommy Ingulfsen - tommying{at}caltech{dot}edu<br /> * Chung Kang<br /> * Santi Thompson<br /> * Brandon Dudley<br /> * Ken Irwin<br /> * Hillel Arnold<br /> * Heidi Frank - hf36{at}nyu{dot}com<br /> * Chris Sharp - csharp{at}georgialibraries{dot}org<br /> * Bill McMillin - wmcmilli{at} pratt{dot} edu<br /> * Jason Raitz - jcraitz at ncsu dot edu<br /> * Linda Ballinger - ballingerl at newberry dot org<br /> * Tim Thompson - t.thompson5{at}miami{dot}edu<br /> * David Gonzalez - d.gonzalez26 at umiami dot edu<br /> * Courtney Greene - crgreene at indiana dot edu<br /> * Evan Boyd - eboyd /at/ ctschicago /period/ edu<br /> * Lauren Ajamie - lauren dot ajamie at nd dot edu<br /> * David Anderson - david dot anderson3 at nih dot gov<br /> * Michael Lindsey - mackeral at gmail dot com<br /> * David Bucknum - dabu at loc dot gov<br /> * Chris Day - cday2 at saic dot edu<br /> * Carolina Garcia - cg116 nyu<br /> * David Cliff dgcliff@iu.edu<br /> * Cody Hanson codyhanson@umn.edu<br /> * Sean Purcell seanpurc{at}uga{dot}edu<br /> * Laurie Lee Moses lmoses{at}colum{dot}edu<br /> * Alisak Sanavongsay asanavongsay{at}ucmerced.edu<br /> * Wayne Schneider wschneider at hclib dot org<br /> * Carolyn Caizzi carolyn{dot}caizzi{at}northwestern{dot}edu<br /> * Julie Rudder - j-rudder at northwestern dot edu<br /> * Andromeda Yelton - andromeda.yelton at gmail<br /> * Adam Strohm - adamstrohm at gmail dot com<br /> * Luke Gaudreau - luke underscore gaudreau at harvard dot edu<br /> <br /> === DPLA Intro/Hacking ===<br /> ====Seminar Room A of Richard J.

All API queries are returned as JSON-LD, a lightweight linked data format, and the metadata is freely reusable under a CC0 public domain license. A front-end portal is currently under development and will be launched in April 2013, though it will serve as but one way into the DPLA’s data. The DPLA encourages the development of applications and tools by developers of all skill levels and backgrounds. In this workshop, participants will actively code against the API to make apps, visualization tools, plug-ins, and other interesting tools that make use of DPLA data. <br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * First and last name, Affiliation<br /> * Justin Clark, Berkman Center for Internet and Society<br /> * Anita Patel, Berkman Center for Internet and Society<br /> * Peter Murray, LYRASIS<br /> <br /> '''I plan on making:'''<br /> * App name (your name): app description<br /> <br /> === Fail4lib ===<br /> ====1-360 Richard J. Daley Library, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====<br /> * Jason Casden, NCSU Libraries (jmcasden at ncsu.edu)<br /> * Andreas Orphanides, NCSU Libraries (akorphan at ncsu.edu)<br /> <br /> The Code4lib community is full of driven people who embrace the risks that are often associated with new projects. While these traits lead to the incredible projects that are presented at Code4lib, creative technical work also often leads to unexpected, vexing, or disappointing results even from eventually successful projects (however you define the term). Learning more about how our colleagues deal with failure in various contexts could lead to the development of better methods for communicating the value of productive failure, modifying project plans (&quot;The Pivot&quot;), and failing more cheaply.<br /> <br /> Hopefully we can define the format as a group, but a fairly high level of participation is crucial if this is to be a worthwhile preconference. Some possible agenda items that could be mixed and matched to fill the afternoon:<br /> <br /> # Given willing presenters, a series of 10-20 minute presentations that go into some depth about specific failures.<br /> # Depending on the number of participants, either a multi- or single-track series of unconference-like themed discussions on various aspects of failure, possibly including themes like:<br /> #* Technical failure<br /> #* Failure to effectively address a real user need<br /> #* Overinvestment<br /> #* Outreach/Promotion failure<br /> #* Design/UX failure<br /> #* Project team communication failure<br /> #* Missed opportunities (risk-averse failure)<br /> #* Successes gleaned from failures<br /> # A panel of participants who have prepared in advance to answer moderator and audience questions about their experience with failure.<br /> # A prepared reading assignment that we could all forget to read, creating a shared fail in order to start the preconference on the right foot.<br /> <br /> I'll serve as a moderator (if needed) and participant and would welcome more organizers. I am happy to be outvoted by participants on any of these points--I just want to get us talking about our screw-ups, blind spots, and anvils dropping from the sky.<br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * Becky Yoose<br /> * Lisa Rabey<br /> * Cynthia Ng (maybe) - cynthia [dot] s [dot] ng [at] gmail<br /> * Patrick Berry, pberry@csuchico.edu<br /> * Erin White, erwhite at vcu edu<br /> * Ranti Junus, ranti.junus at gmail<br /> <br /> === Solr 4 In Depth ===<br /> ====UIC Forum, 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm on Monday, February 11====<br /> * Contact: Erik Hatcher (erik.hatcher at lucidworks.com)<br /> <br /> The long awaited and much anticipated Solr 4 has been released!

Still getting some details, but here's what we know:<br /> <br /> Game Night! Type of games might vary due to interest and what people bring. Looks like interest right now is mostly on light to mediumish games with a dash of abstracts ;). <br /> <br /> <br /> We have a conference room at the UIC library (Richard J. Daley Library MC 234, 801 S. Morgan, Chicago) reserved for 7:30 on Tuesday the 11th. I'll try to show up at the lobby and hang out there for at about 7:15. I'll be the guy with a code4lib nametag and a box of games ;). Not sure how late we'll play, it looks like the library is open till 1:00am, but I suspect I will for now put a rough ending time of 11pm. <br /> <br /> (Note, there's also some discussion on Cards Against Humanity. I will try to make sure there's an alternative game, but I don't know if I want to prohibit any games. I would say though to remember to be respectful and courteous to those around you. I will probably be pondering this issue for a while)<br /> <br /> I (Jon Gorman) will bring some board games and pick up some cards. Add your name to the list below if you're interested can bring games. Bringing games is NOT REQUIRED. If you can bring a game you can teach, that's great and will make sure we're not just stuck playing the games I bring.<br /> <br /> (I've added some comments to the game lists below)<br /> * jtgorman, aka Jon Gorman: I'll bring Time's Up: Total Recall, Tsuro, Hey, That's My Fish, Hive, and some more I haven't decided on yet. (My profile over at http://www.boardgamegeek.com/ is jtgorman as well if you want to browse my games and make requests)<br /> * yo_bj: I have some games I can bring as well (Kill Doctor Lucky, Fluxx, Godzilla: Stomp, Munchkin Zombies, etc.). Monday doesn't have anything major planned... <br /> *danwho: I 'll bring the Cards Against Humanity set.<br /> *escowles (Mon/Tue preferred): I've got lots of games I could bring like Settlers of Catan, Carcassonne, Ticket to Ride, Age of Renaissance, Elfenland, Agricola, Le Havre, Smallworld, RoboRally, etc. etc. <br /> ** Take your pick! All good games. I'll try to finalize my list of games before Friday - JonG <br /> *jen_young: I'm local and I have quite a few games. Just about every version of Fluxx, Bananagrams, Gloom, Munchkin Cthulu,Cards Against Humanity, Apples to Apples, Risk, Last Night on Earth, etc.) <br /> **All good games! If you don't mind bringing a box that would be awesome. I particularly like Apples to Apples, Last Night on Earth and Gloom - JonG<br /> * decasm: Interested in Go (aka igo, weiqi, baduk) anytime, not just game night. I can do Catan as well. (And as much as I love it, Cards Against Humanity is probably a violation of the new Code of Conduct.) <br /> ** I look forward to losing my first game of Go to you ;) - JonG<br /> ** I'd love to learn Go. Perhaps after the newcomer dinner? --ranti.<br /> * csharp: I'm interested in playing games - whatever people bring. I almost always travel with a pack or two of playing cards ;-). Monday or Tuesday nights are fine.<br /> * moneill: I would love to join in! I have a version of Catchphrase floating around somewhere, and I think I have Battleship...I need to go weed around in that drawer and see what else presents itself. Tuesday would be my preferred night, but I will make it work! <br /> ** Don't worry too much about bringing a game if transportation is a problem. One thing I've done w/ stuff like catchphrase is not take the box but to put pieces and cards in a bag - JOn G<br /> * demiankatz: I'm always up for a game. I'm hoping to travel light so probably shouldn't bring anything, but if there's a local game shop, I might be persuaded to pick up something new as a souvenir. <br /> ** Don't worry, I think there will be plenty of games - JonG<br /> * sekjal: I've got [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/36218/dominion Dominion], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/68448/7-wonders 7 Wonders], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/30933/bang-the-bullet Bang!], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/18333/ecofluxx EcoFluxx] and [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/116/guillotine Guillotine] that I can bring. ++ on Cards against Humanity! Prefer non-conflict with beer night. <br /> ** Also all good games. I have 7 Wonders, but can bring some other games if you bring that. - Jon G<br /> * arty: so totally interested. Unfortunately, I have no games to contribute.<br /> ** No prob.<br /> * sanderson: I would be interested. I can bring [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/478/citadels Citadels] (2-7 players)<br /> ** Citadels would be awesome and means I don't have to bring it ;) - JonG<br /> * dvdndrsn: Definitely in! Can bring Innovation, Tichu, Dominion, but Cards Against Humanity sounds good. <br /> ** I'll put in a vote for Tichu, heard good things about it - Jon G <br /> * smkiewel: I'm likely to join. Can bring Arkham Horror and Munchkin.<br /> ** Arkham Horror seems rather bulky to travel with, but if you want to play bring it ;) - Jon G<br /> * jkwilson: I'd like to attend Monday or Tuesday. I have a bunch of games but I'd prefer not to travel with them, and anyway it sounds like they're covered above. I'll bring the 5-6 player Catan extension.<br /> * ejlynema: Interested, but will probably attend Newcomer dinner on Tuesday. Like Dominion and 7 Wonders, but probably don't have room to bring in suitcase. Anyone bringing Tsuro? <br /> ** I can bring Tsuro - Jon G<br /> * Christie Peterson (save4use): Also interested, but also probably attending newcomer dinner on Tuesday. Can bring [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/11/bohnanza Bohnanza] and one deck of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_%28game%29 Set]. <br /> **Bohnanza and Set would be awesome - JonG<br /> * dgcliff: I'd be interested. Can bring Ticket to Ride.<br /> * mbklein: definitely interested. Will check on my (currently unpacked) games. I am dying to play Cards Against Humanity. If we can't find a way to reconcile it with the Code of Conduct, we need a different Code of Conduct.<br /> ** Considering that this is a public event, and that no one knows everyone's sensitivity levels in the room, it might not be a good idea to break out a crass, adult version of apples to apples in the middle of the gaming room. :cP (yo_bj)<br /> * duspal: In. My board game collection is small but mighty (Arkham Horror, Catan, Vampire: Prince of the City, Deadlands: Battle for Slaughter Gulch, Arabian Nights, Diplomacy, Shogun, and Cosmic Encounter off the top of my head, amongst a few others). Let me know ahead of time if anyone is interested, since they're all relatively big... <br /> ** If you really want to play Cosmic Encounter, I can bring my copy (Fantasy Flight edition, 3 expansions), just let me know - JonG<br /> *librarywebchic: I'm willing to bring a set and teach folks how to play Majhong. Need at least three to play though.<br /> **beatricep: Uno gets no respect. ;-) @librarywebchic: I have always wanted to learn to play Majhong. If you're still bringing it, I'm in!<br /> ** Agreed, I don't know Majhong and I love learning new games. - JonG<br /> ** I actually know a few different rule sets. It's too bad I don't have a travel set or I'd bring a 2nd one -Arty<br /> * jcraitz: I'm in after the newcomer dinner. I'll bring Citadels and Bang! <br /> **I think someone higher in the list offered to bring citadels, but won't hurt to have two copies just in case one of you don't show ;) - JonG<br /> * julia: I'll be the freeloader who showed up and didn't bring any games.<br /> * kenirwin: interested in attending<br /> * sdellis: attending<br /> * ianc: interested in attending, a little rusty but definitely up for a couple rounds of Mahjong, also want to try something new too!<br /> <br /> I have to confess, I started trying to organize what games certain people were bringing, but it got confusing fast and I don't want anyone to feel compelled to bring anything or feel bad if they can't make it. So if there is something you're dying to play, let me know and I'll try to bring it if I have it.<br /> <br /> == Social Map - Places of Interest==<br /> <br /> https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=213549257652679418473.0004ce6c25e6cdeb0319d&amp;msa=0<br /> <br /> == Layar: augmented reality Code4Lib view of Chicago ==<br /> <br /> There's a &quot;Code4Lib 2013&quot; layer in [http://www.layar.com/ Layar], an augmented reality app that runs on both Android and iOS.

<p>Rosy1280: /* Newcomer Dinner, Tuesday 2/12 */</p> <hr /> <div>== Ideas ==<br /> <br /> * Aviary: super-crazy cocktails. http://www.molecularrecipes.com/molecular-mixology/aviary-cocktails/ . List your name if you're interested, whether Sunday, Monday, and/or Tuesday (after newcomer dinners) work, and whether you're just interested in stopping by, or doing a 7 cocktail tasting flight.*<br /> ** statsfool: sunday/monday/tuesday, either drinks or flight.<br /> ** Amyhannah: monday/tuesday, drinks, probably not the flight.<br /> ** anarchivist: sunday/monday, prefer drinks over flight but could be convinced<br /> ** [[User:highermath|highermath]]: monday (could use 10 cocktails after Drupal subCon, I am sure). Uber now works in Chicago, so I would do the flight.<br /> ** [[User:pberry|pberry]]: any night but Wednesday (that's Goose Island night) and I'd be up for drinks or flight, although leaning away from flight.<br /> ** [[User:thatandromeda|thatandromeda]] oh my gosh yes, any time, probably not the flight.<br /> ** [[User:Gdave|gdave]] beautiful site, I would be interested, Sun,Mon,Tues. either drink or flight.<br /> ** scollett: sun/mon/tue, drinks, maybe flight. Parks and Recreation: [http://bit.ly/13MY2EW The wrong way to consume alcohol (molecular mixology)]<br /> <br /> * Game Night! Type of games might vary due to interest, could range from party games like Werewolf, Wits &amp; Wagers, Telestrations, Taboo, Apples to Apples to perhaps more strategic games like De Vulgari Eloquentia or Eclipse. Jon Gorman is willing to bring some games, are you? Jon will try to send out an email soon to get some interest.<br /> ** yo_bj: I have some games I can bring as well (Kill Doctor Lucky, Fluxx, Godzilla: Stomp, Munchkin Zombies, etc.). Monday doesn't have anything major planned...<br /> **danwho: I 'll bring the Cards Against Humanity set.<br /> **escowles (Mon/Tue preferred): I've got lots of games I could bring like Settlers of Catan, Carcassonne, Ticket to Ride, Age of Renaissance, Elfenland, Agricola, Le Havre, Smallworld, RoboRally, etc. etc.<br /> **jen_young: I'm local and I have quite a few games. Just about every version of Fluxx, Bananagrams, Gloom, Munchkin Cthulu,Cards Against Humanity, Apples to Apples, Risk, Last Night on Earth, etc.)<br /> ** decasm: Interested in Go (aka igo, weiqi, baduk) anytime, not just game night. I can do Catan as well. (And as much as I love it, Cards Against Humanity is probably a violation of the new Code of Conduct.)<br /> ** csharp: I'm interested in playing games - whatever people bring. I almost always travel with a pack or two of playing cards ;-). Monday or Tuesday nights are fine.<br /> ** moneill: I would love to join in! I have a version of Catchphrase floating around somewhere, and I think I have Battleship...I need to go weed around in that drawer and see what else presents itself. Tuesday would be my preferred night, but I will make it work!<br /> ** demiankatz: I'm always up for a game. I'm hoping to travel light so probably shouldn't bring anything, but if there's a local game shop, I might be persuaded to pick up something new as a souvenir.<br /> ** sekjal: I've got [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/36218/dominion Dominion], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/68448/7-wonders 7 Wonders], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/30933/bang-the-bullet Bang!], [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/18333/ecofluxx EcoFluxx] and [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/116/guillotine Guillotine] that I can bring. ++ on Cards against Humanity! Prefer non-conflict with beer night.<br /> ** arty: so totally interested. Unfortunately, I have no games to contribute.<br /> ** sanderson: I would be interested. I can bring [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/478/citadels Citadels] (2-7 players)<br /> ** dvdndrsn: Definitely in! Can bring Innovation, Tichu, Dominion, but Cards Against Humanity sounds good. <br /> ** smkiewel: I'm likely to join. Can bring Arkham Horror and Munchkin.<br /> ** jkwilson: I'd like to attend Monday or Tuesday. I have a bunch of games but I'd prefer not to travel with them, and anyway it sounds like they're covered above. I'll bring the 5-6 player Catan extension.<br /> ** ejlynema: Interested, but will probably attend Newcomer dinner on Tuesday. Like Dominion and 7 Wonders, but probably don't have room to bring in suitcase. Anyone bringing Tsuro?<br /> ** save4use: Also interested, but also probably attending newcomer dinner on Tuesday. Can bring [http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/11/bohnanza Bohnanza] and one deck of {http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_%28game%29 Set]. <br /> <br /> * Brewery tour - some possible candidates would be Goose Island, Brew Bus http://www.chicagobrewbus.com/, Piece, Revolution, Half Acre.<br /> * Library field trips - because we're library geeks. Possible places include Newberry and Read/Write.--Read/Write Library confirmed for February 12.--Newberry Library confirmed for February 14.<br /> * Art Institute of Chicago - Only open until 5pm, but possible for people coming in early enough on Sunday.<br /> ** escowles: I'm getting in around noon on Sunday, and interested in this.<br /> <br /> == Planned Events ==<br /> <br /> === Newcomer Dinner, Tuesday 2/12 ===<br /> <br /> First time at code4lib?

These new databases (often referred to as NoSQL databases) excel at handling problems faced by modern information systems that the traditional relational model cannot.

These new databases (often referred to as NoSQL databases) excel at handling problems faced by modern information systems that the traditional relational model cannot. They are particularly popular among organizations tackling the so-called &quot;Big Data&quot; problems. However, there are always tradeoffs involved when making such dramatic changes. Understanding how these different kinds of databases are designed and what they can offer is essential to the decision making process. In this precon I will discuss some of the various types of new databases (key-value, columnar, document, graph) and walk through examples or exercises using some of their open source implementations like Riak, HBase, CouchDB, and Neo4j.<br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * First and last name<br /> * Esha Datta<br /> * Trevor Thornton<br /> * Michael Doran<br /> * Ray Schwartz<br /> * Kevin Clarke<br /> * Andreas Orphanides<br /> * Tommy Ingulfsen<br /> * Harrison Dekker<br /> * Eric James<br /> <br /> ==Half Day Afternoon==<br /> === Data Visualization Hackfest ===<br /> * Chris Beer, cabeer at stanford.edu<br /> * Dan Chudnov, dchud at gwu edu<br /> <br /> * Description: Want to hack/design/plan/document on a team of people who enjoy learning by creating?

While these traits lead to the incredible projects that are presented at Code4lib, creative technical work also often leads to unexpected, vexing, or disappointing results even from eventually successful projects (however you define the term). Learning more about how our colleagues deal with failure in various contexts could lead to the development of better methods for communicating the value of productive failure, modifying project plans (&quot;The Pivot&quot;), and failing more cheaply.<br /> <br /> Hopefully we can define the format as a group, but a fairly high level of participation is crucial if this is to be a worthwhile preconference. Some possible agenda items that could be mixed and matched to fill the afternoon:<br /> <br /> # Given willing presenters, a series of 10-20 minute presentations that go into some depth about specific failures.<br /> # Depending on the number of participants, either a multi- or single-track series of unconference-like themed discussions on various aspects of failure, possibly including themes like:<br /> #* Technical failure<br /> #* Failure to effectively address a real user need<br /> #* Overinvestment<br /> #* Outreach/Promotion failure<br /> #* Design/UX failure<br /> #* Project team communication failure<br /> #* Missed opportunities (risk-averse failure)<br /> #* Successes gleaned from failures<br /> # A panel of participants who have prepared in advance to answer moderator and audience questions about their experience with failure.<br /> # A prepared reading assignment that we could all forget to read, creating a shared fail in order to start the preconference on the right foot.<br /> <br /> I'll serve as a moderator (if needed) and participant and would welcome more organizers. I am happy to be outvoted by participants on any of these points--I just want to get us talking about our screw-ups, blind spots, and anvils dropping from the sky.<br /> <br /> '''I plan on attending:'''<br /> * First and last name<br /> * Becky Yoose<br /> <br /> === Solr 4 In Depth ===<br /> * Contact: Erik Hatcher (erik.hatcher at lucidworks.com)<br /> <br /> The long awaited and much anticipated Solr 4 has been released!
