The short answer to the your question is, "Yes." A longer answer is, "All of the above." I know a number of Code4Lib types were there, and I'm wondering what sort of things were discussed that related to Library Land. WorldCat APIs. NLP. "Boutique" collections. Others?
I guess what I really want to know is, "How did the 'digital humanities' compare & contrast with librarianship?"
