= Code4Lib 2016 Committees =

''Many hands make for light work.''

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 2016 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.

We will assign a local contact (LPC) to each committee.
