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.
Contents
Code4lib BC Unconference 2016
Registration is now open for Code4Lib BC's fourth annual unconference!
- December 1 and 2, 2016
- Dodson Room, Irving K. Barber Learning Centre, UBC, Vancouver BC
- Register now ($30 for both days)
- Propose a lightning talk or breakout session
What's it all about?
It's a 2-day unconference - a participant-driven meeting bringing together a diverse and open community of library developers and non-developers engaging in effective, collaborative problem-solving through technology regardless of their department or background.
The event will feature lightning talks in the mornings, breakout sessions in the afternoons, with coffee, tea and snacks provided. Lightning talks are brief presentations which are typically 10-15 minutes in length on topics related to library technologies. Breakout sessions are an opportunity to bring participants together in an ad hoc fashion for a short, yet sustained period of problem solving, software development and fun. If there is a neat project you're 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 with the community - let us know about it!
What's included: wifi, power, coffee/snacks
What's NOT included/what to bring: a laptop, lunch (on-campus options here and here), your ideas and enthusiasm
Hashtag: #c4lbc
Code of Conduct: As a Code4Lib event, we adhere to the Code4Lib Code of Conduct, which seeks to provide a welcoming, harassment-free environment.
