2006 Library Camp: A library 2.0 unconference

Mark April 14th on your calendars. Superpatron Ed Vielmetti has been quietly assembling a fantastic group of people to attend the first ever Library Camp--an "unconference" which follows open-space guidelines. There is no registration as it operates on the premise that whomever shows up belongs there (though an optional wiki sign-up gives us a good idea of how many/who is coming).

The 2006 Library Camp will be held here at the Ann Arbor District Library. Programs and discussions will continue throughout that day and may spill out into the stacks, computing centers and wherever else the participants deem a good meeting place. Of course, all your geek amenities will be provided.

Be sure to visit the wiki or tune into Ed's blog for more information.

[...] If you haven’t already seen it on Blyberg’s blog or on Superpatron’s there is a sort of informal meetup of lib2.0 people at the Ann Arbor Distric Library. They call it an “unconference” but i’ll call it a meetup. There’s a wiki page for signup. I’m not ashamed to say I’m looking forward to meeting a non-library person than the lib people. I’m going to try to make it though I have already disagreed with people. Leopold Bros have tolerable beer but nothing fantastic. Would be better to hit up Ashley’s or perhaps Arbor Brewing. Nothing in A2′d demands my visit though. [...]

What a wonderful idea! I’d like so much to organize such an _unconference_ also in Italy…
