→Call for Volunteers
We're looking for volunteers, both for general long-term organizational duties and to help plan future events. Positions that we know we need include a social media expert, an IRC guy/gal, and a social functions organizer. We also need volunteers to help us with needs we as yet don't know we need (and feel free to identify them). If you're interested in helping the chapter, sign up for the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/code4lib-mid-atlantic Code4Lib Mid-Atlantic Google Group] and post what you'd be interested in. We're a friendly bunch so don't be afraid to jump right in.
== Host a Code4Lib Mid-Atlantic Meetup ==
As well as volunteers, we're definitely looking for future hosts for our Last Wednesday of the Month meet-ups. April, May and June 2013 are currently earmarked, but we're open after that. Typically, we meet in a conference room for one to two hours (having a projector and laptop/computer on hand recommended) and adjourn to a local restaurant or bar for a social hour. If you're interested in hosting, contact [mailto:david.uspal@villanova.edu David Uspal] and he'll get you on the calendar.
To keep us "regionally diverse", we're trying to keep on a 2:1 host schedule -- i.e for every two events hosted in Philadelphia, we'd like to get one outside the city as well. As such, we're especially looking for hosts outside the Center City Philadelphia area.
So far, our informal meet-ups have been "Quaker Style", aka anyone who has somethign to say gets up and presents (no formal time limits, but keeping it 10-15 minutes to be polite.) Feel free to plan your future meetup in this fashion or feel free to experiment with the formula. We're an easy-going bunch, so feel free to has as you'd like.
