We want to invite you to get involved with the DPLA Ada Lovelace Day, a 
coordinated, multi-community event happening on October 13, 2015. The 
goal of this day is to inspire and guide simultaneous DPLA Ada Day 
events in different communities and cities on Ada Lovelace Day. The 
simultaneous events will celebrate the life and work of Ada Lovelace by 
using the DPLA digital collections and related tools to make women in 
technology, science and mathematics apps, projects, syllabi, essays, 
digital exhibitions or anything else in the spirit of Ada Lovelace day. 
We welcome anyone and everyone to organize a DPLA Ada Lovelace Day event 
in your own area; these can be hackathons, workshops, or any other event 
permutation, with the shared focus on women in technology, science, and 
mathematics highlighted by working with the DPLA collections. To 
coordinate, a list of events being planned will be available on the DPLA 
Ada Lovelace Day site. Additionally, at the end of the day, communities’ 
creations and responses to the event will be shared on this site. See 
more information there: http://dpladalovelace.us/
