2013 During the Conference Volunteers
code4lib 2013 During the Conference Volunteers
Hospitality Suite Committee
This committee makes arrangements for any hospitality suite amenities (technology, snacks, games, icebreakers...) we may want. N.B. This year's suite will have a curfew of 11 pm, for the sake of the neighboring rooms
- Becky Yoose(b.yoose at gmail dot com) -- Grinnell College
- Ranti Junus (ranti.junus at gmail dot com) -- Michigan State University
Welcome Wagon Committee
Offers conference newcomers an opportunity to self-identify; offers oldtimers an opportunity to meet newcomers. May also want to constitute a year-round variation for #code4lib.
- Becky Yoose(b.yoose at gmail dot com) -- Grinnell College
- Rosalyn Metz (rosalynmetz at gmail dot com) -- The George Washington University
Social Networking
Responsible for non-IRC social networking presence.
For 2014, we might assign 1-2 person(s) to take questions for sessions (assuming there's time) via Twitter/IRC. Just a thought.
IRC Evangelists
Demonstrate how to get onto #code4lib during Registration. Offer support for newcomers in #code4lib during the conference.

Session Timer Volunteers
People who volunteer to sit up front, keep time (and bring timer equipment - i.e. a laptop with a stopwatch program). It's good to have two people in each slot to back each other up in case of machinery failure.
