BACKGROUND:

Code4Lib Northwest connects innovators and problem solvers so they can share
information about projects, trends and technologies. Most importantly, it
seeks to develop a community where people share information and experience
and collaborate on work towards common goals. You don't have to be a
programmer to attend, but you shouldn't be surprised if a couple presenters
toss a little illustrative code on the screens.

If you weren't able to attend last year or are unfamiliar with the format,
you're in for a treat. Mix it up with some the best library technologists in
the PNW! If you want to find out what people are up to, this is the place.

FORMAT:

The Code4Lib Northwest meeting is a one day conference in traditional
Code4Lib style.  It will feature a series of 20 minute sessions and two
periods of lightning talks. By keeping the group size low and presentations
short in a highly interactive environment, it's easy for busy people to
share their ideas so you get to learn about what really interests you.

PRESENTATIONS:

In preparation for Code4Lib PNW, a small number of presentations have been
pre-solicited and are available with the draft schedule here:

laptop with an internet connection and a data projector will be provided.

ATTENDEES AND REGISTRATION:

Code4Lib Northwest 2011 event will be capped at 60 participants. Early
registration is $60 (after April 29, it becomes $75), and lunch as well as
refreshments throughout the day will be provided. The price has risen due to
increased costs for putting on the conference.
