In conjunction with Bob Roberson-Boyd at OCLC, I'm pleased to announce
plans for a BarCampOhio/LibraryCampOhio meeting on Monday, August
11th from 10am to 5:30pm at the OCLC Conference Center in Dublin, OH.
Two camp communities! One day! All of the details, include stuff not
covered below, are on the event homepage.
What’s planned is a dual-track unconference of business technologists
and library technologists. Why? We think there is synergy between
these groups:
Library technologists have:
Strong roots in all of our communities
A couple decades of experience dealing with massive amounts of data
Great sensitivity to privacy and identity management on a limited scale
Business technologists have:
Around 8 or more years of experience dealing with Web-scale
applications and problems
Have a get-it-done-NOW need
Typically have more marketing experience and/or resources
Registration fee will be about $25 per person. A registration service
will be announced soon, but in the meantime you can add your name to
the list of interested people towards the bottom of the BarCampOhio
wiki page. (PBwiki.com accounts required; the wiki-password/invite-key
is “c4mp”.)
