[Noisebridge-discuss] ALA unconference

[Mitch Altman]

This would be great to have at Noisebridge! 

BTW, on 26-June at Noisebridge we're hosting a panel about hackerspaces at libraries, and also an Arduino workshop for librarians.  Hopefully these won't get in the way of the unconference. 

Best, 
Mitch.

Hi all,



Writing to see if we could host an American Library Association

unconference at Noisebridge for two days during the week of June 25-31.

I can't make this week's Tuesday meeting, but should be able to make

next week's. I'm not a member, so I'm a little dim about how to get

something on the calendar :)



At the unconference we'd like to focus on activist-librarianship,

access, social justice, digital privacy, and issues related to sharing

and copyright. While so many librarians are in SF for the ALA

conference, we'd like to host an alternative gathering for topics under

discussed or overlooked at the main event.



I'm organizing this as part of the Library Freedom Project

(https://libraryfreedomproject.org/). The website is still under

construction, but here's the project description:

Best, April
