Just quick reminder that the code4lib Ottawa meetup is happening this Wednesday night at The Exchange Pub. More info is available on the wiki page: http://wiki.code4lib.org/index.php/North#Code4lib_North_Meetups_in_Ottawa If you haven't already sent me a message to RSVP, please do so soon so that I have a better idea of how many seats to reserve.
