Welcome to Code4Lib BC! Begun in Summer 2013, this chapter aims to create connections and professional development opportunities for folks from British Columbia and surrounding areas.

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.

Our objective is to foster innovation, collaboration, and knowledge sharing amongst the greater Southeastern community of technologists.  This is a good opportunity to meet your colleagues at peer institutions in the Southeast in a smaller, more relaxed, and casual setting.  Share knowledge, ideas, experiences, and struggles working with common library applications. Discuss strategies for overcoming common organizational quandaries. Gain valuable insights into emerging trends, innovative tools, and best practices that can be directly applied to enhance your library’s operations and services. Take home actionable strategies and fresh perspectives!
