We met quarterly throughout 2012. We've enjoyed a number of in depth technical presentations on a variety of topics. Meetings have been free to attend. Past host institutions have been the Smithsonian, GWU, and the Arlington Public Library. We're looking forward to a 2013 of the same calibre. If you are in the area, please do feel free to drop in. If you are unable to make it in person, check with the hosts to see if distance participation is an option. We did have one distance person with us at one of the Smithsonian meet ups. :)
 
 
==Code4Lib DC 2014 unconference==
 
August 11-12, 2014<br/>
Gelman Library<br/>
George Washington University<br />
 
Connect with fellow code-interested cultural heritage professionals at two side-by-side events: a DC-area code4lib unconference and an introduction to programming workshop. As typical of unconferences, the content and activities of the day are determined by the attendees. Bring your ideas! We encourage everyone to consider giving a 10-20 minute talk, a lightning talk, lead a workshop, or organize another activity.
 
The two events are intended to provide an inclusive, welcoming environment, supported by the [http://www.diglib.org/about/code-of-conduct/ DLF Code of Conduct]. The schedule includes opportunities for the attendees in each track to meet each other, including a plenary opening session, shared lightning talks, Day 2 afternoon unconference events, and combined coffee/lunch/snack breaks.
These events are sponsored by the Digital Library Federation and the GW Libraries.
More details, schedule, and registration via the [http://library.gwu.edu/code4lib-dc-2014 GW Libraries site].
 
We'll be using this page to facilitate sign-ups for unconference talks and activities.
