Drupal4lib Sub-con Barcamp
Full Day
- Contact Cary Gordon, cgordon@chillco.com
This will be a full day of self-selected barcamp style sessions. Anyone who wants to present can write down the topic on an index card and, after the keynote, we will vote to choose what we want to see. Attendees can also pick a topic and attempt to talk someone else into presenting on it.
This event is open to the library community. There will be a nominal fee (t/b/d) for non-Code4LibCon attendees (subject to organizer approval).

Open Refine Hackfest
"Half-Day"
- Contact Chad Nelson, chadbnelson@gmail.com
Open Refine is a powerful open source tool for wrangling messy data that can also be used to help in the creation of Linked Data via the Reconciliation API. It is possible to write reconciliation services against API's, like the VIAF service or, even just against local authority files for helping maintain authority control
The session would first introduce Open Refine, then walk through building a reconciliation service, and the rest of the session would be a hackfest where we build new reconciliation services for public consumption or local use.
