If, after four days of Code4LIB, you are not yet conferenced-out and are
staying in Raleigh for an additional day, why not attend THATCamp Digital
Knowledge at the James B. Hunt Jr. Library on March 28 from 10 to 5 and
also help us celebrate Arduino Day? Attendance is free, you just have to
register (see the announcement below).

THATCamp is an opportunity for faculty, grad students, university staff and
members of the public to learn and play at the intersections of technology,
humanities, social sciences, arts, and libraries. Participants are welcomed
to propose sessions that relate to digital scholarship and pedagogy or any
other topic they'd like to explore with fellow attendees. Sessions
typically enable participants to develop new skill sets, think through
ideas in a cooperative setting, and workshop current and future projects.
(See the instructions on what sorts of sessions you might propose in
advance or on the spot.)

This year, THATCamp also invites attendees to use the Hunt Library's
high-tech spaces including the Teaching and Visualization Lab, the Game
Lab, and the Creativity Studio. Staff will be on hand to assist with
running and configuring these spaces. In addition to sessions that
participants propose in advance or on the spot, THATCamp will offer
hands-on workshops led by librarians and faculty on the Arduino
microprocessor, as part of NC State's parallel celebration of the worldwide
Arduino Day 2014. Other sessions will focus on topics and technologies
ranging from Google Glass to data visualization and GIS to multiplayer
interactive fiction.

Please note: participation is limited to 75 people.  To attend, please
register by March 26. To learn more, visit our website,
