Hopefully a Library Unconference at Rutgers Newark in March 2011

Yesterday, I met with two colleagues at the Dana Library of Rutgers-Newark and discussed the possibility of holding a library unconference there. I discussed many of the points covered in:

Lawson, Steve. Library Camps and Unconferences. [S.l.]: Facet Publishing, 2010.

They seemed to be receptive to the idea and will discuss it with their director. We did feel that the date would be in March 2011 during the spring break week. It would have to be at a time when there is minimal activity on campus. It is too late to plan something for the summer and there is a large meeting of New Jersey academic librarians (VALE) in January.

Let's hope we can pull this off.
