Dear all,
The AMIA/DLF Hack Day <http://www.amiaconference.net/amiadlf-hack-day-2014/>
is fast approaching! This FREE event on Wednesday, Oct 8 at the Hyatt
Regency in Savannah, GA will provide attendees with an opportunity to work
intensively together to solve a shared challenge or develop an innovative
solution for the audiovisual archiving community. You do not need to have
any technical skills to join a project -- just be able to communicate your
needs, or bring sample data. Find out about some of the project proposals
that have already been submitted through the Hack Day wiki
<http://wiki.curatecamp.org/index.php/Association_of_Moving_Image_Archivists_%26_Digital_Library_Federation_Hack_Day_2014>,
and feel free to add your own!
Don't feel like hacking? There will be a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon occurring
simultaneously.
Everyone is welcome, provided that you are willing to participate! No
onlookers, observers, lurkers, please. Registration for the AMIA conference
is not required to attend Hack Day. All Hack Day attendees are required to
register through a separate form
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1P8iQfCPub8abaWGUcl-WGPYnEvr7CxIFKK0dYA3VHaA/viewform>
(even if you already signed up when you did your conference registration).
Did we mention there will be prizes?!
Hope to see you there!
-- Kara, Lauren, Steven, and Kathryn
