Friday, September 16th, 1 PM, Olin Library 2B48 RMC Lecture Room
Contacts for this meeting: Marcie Suzanne Farwell + Christina Harlow
About: To kick off the new year of the Metadata Working Group, we have a Lightning Talks session scheduled for Friday, September 16th, at 1 PM in Kroch Library 2B48 RMC Lecture Room (or via Webex, information below).
Lightning talks are informal, 5-7 minutes (tops) presentations that cover a perspective, idea, project, or question in a short time period. This allows for many different people to present on a variety of topics, in a fun atmosphere - as well as to sign up as late as the day of (as preparation is minimal). We have a number of folks signed up to give lightning talks already (the list is below), but we warmly welcome others to give a further lightning talk. These talks can present on anything to do with metadata defined broadly. As a place to start, we'd love to hear a diverse group of folks talk about:
- what are you working on with metadata right now?
- what annoying metadata issues are you hitting and need help with?
- what pipe dreams for working with or leveraging awesome metadata do you have?
- what questions about metadata are bothering you at midnight while you try to sleep?
To sign up to give a lightning talk, just respond to this email (to Christina or Marcie) and we'll get you set up. You can sign up as late as the day of. We will also give some time for discussion and questions/answers after the talks. We will be using these lightning talks as an opportunity to find areas for the Metadata Working Group to build out during the upcoming MWG sessions.
The session is open to everyone, and we hope to see everyone next Friday the 16th at 1 PM! All are welcome, and Webex information for the session follows.
