NJ Library BarCamp? 2007 January 6
Michael J. Giarlo. has proposed a New Jersey BarCamp for Library Geeks in his Technosophia blog. His plan is based on a model of a group in D.C. and sounds very interesting. His reasons for wanting to start a NJ Library BarCamp include:
Why BarCamp? Don’t we have enough meetings and symposiums? Sure, we’re all spread thin. Our niche would be to bring together the TAG-style dog & pony shows with code sprints and other collaborative development a la the Access Hackfest. We’re looking for a group that will be innovative, collegial, social, practical, and – not to be corny, but – fun-loving.
I plan on attending this is Michael gets it off the ground. If you are interested in more details, see the post about it on his blog and let Michael know.
