Maryland, Washington D.C etc.

We want to bring the code{4}lib experience to the library community in the Maryland, Washington, D.C., and the great Commonwealth of Virginia area. Our hope is that meeting at the regional level will strengthen our local connections and develop more real world collaborative efforts.

Next Meeting

When: Wednesday, June 27th 4:30-5:30p meet, 5:30p-? Tasty beverages
Where:Smithsonian Institution, National Museum of Natural History, 10th and Constitution Ave. NW, Washington DC 20004 Room CEG 15, Library Conference Room. Google Map
How: Nearest METRO stops are Federal Triangle on Blue/Orange, Archives/Navy Memorial on Yellow/Green or Metro Center (everything else.) The main hallway to our conference room has been blocked for construction on our new offices, so it's a little confusing to get to. Please meet at the Haida Totem Pole in the Constitution Ave Entrance Lobby (ground floor, Constitution Ave and 10th St. NW - when you come in the main doors the totem pole is to your left, near the staircase) around 4:30. We'll wait if you're late. If you're REALLY late and no one is at the totem pole, please call Keri at 202.633.1716 or @ me on teh twitters @DigiKeri_SIL and I'll come get you.

Tuesday, 13 September, 2011 10-11.20ish at Arlington Public Library Central Branch in Arlington, VA

With representatives present from Public, Academic, and Special Libraries, this looked to be a great start to rejuvenating the Chapter. (School Librarians, come out and play!) We had a great discussion about Linked Data. We reaffirmed that we'll hold quarterly meetings, and that doing so regularly will help keep things rolling. We hope to have diverse subjects to explore to keep everyone's interest. We'll hold off on formal governance until a larger group necessitates formality.

The Martin Luther King Library in the District would like help with Library Lab DC if anyone would like to participate in that endeavour. This is also a wonderful place to go if you're looking for spot to house open collaboration.

There were a couple of interesting meetings and events to attend that we shared with one another.

  • Requests, ideas, and volunteers for topics for future gatherings
  • Governance (do we want any?)
