There is a separate Code4Lib-SE (Southeast) mailing list for the planning of Southeast region Code4Lib meetups.  Feel free to post Code4Lib-SE topics to the main Code4Lib mailing list as well (for instance, announcing new meetups) but this Code4Lib-SE specific mailing list will make sure we don't drown the main mailing list with other sorts of Code4Lib-SE administriva.

Skills to be Shared:

If there’s a neat project you've been working on, a cool new tool you want to show off, or an interesting development in the world of library technology that you want to discuss, Code4Lib BC is a great opportunity to share that with the community.
−
* Metadata munging with XQuery, including roundtripping MARC to/from other XML metadata formats using https://github.com/ksclarke/freelib-marc4j-exist -- Kevin Clarke
+
−
* Perl + MARC/RDF munging -- Galen Charlton
+

We'll then take a coffee and food break as needed. Some coffee, tea and local treats from Magpie's Bakery will be provided.
+
[https://forms.gle/ Submit a lightning talk or breakout session idea -- coming soon!]

The second 2 hours will consist of breakout sessions where groups of folks can work with datasets using the tools/skills picked up. We invite people to bring their own datasets that need any kind of work - encoding issues, normalizing headings, mapping to other formats, pulling in URIs. If you don't bring your own data, we'll use datasets from UTK and the DPLA that need work normalizing and mapping names/subjects of regional interest. Attendees are invited to sit and learn or work on their own data - whatever you feel most comfortable with doing.
