We didn't congratulate ourselves enough at #c4l26 on refusing to counter Carnegie Mellon kicking us out because our bursaries are called (and are) Diversity Scholarships. I don't mean it should have become a focus, but recognizing more how we insisted on our values may help the next time. #code4lib
I've made a blog post out of my recent lightning talk at #c4l26, sharing some ideas I've been contemplating lately while in libraries and on trails.
The post includes my full text, links to sites and images shown in the talk, and some bonus links for context (including a book link that […]
Enjoyed hearing talks and meeting people at #c4l26 this year! Especially impressed to be meeting with a group which, as one participant put it, moved the whole conference across the state rather than compromise its values. (And for pulling that off on short notice, I'm willing to forgive any […]

Kicking off #code4lib in phabulous Philly! (I'll probably be on the Slack more, but wanted to attach to the hashtag for finding me and it.)
I'm seeing #c4l26 projected on the screen at the #Code4LIb conference in Philly, so I'm going to assume that #c4l26 is this conference's official hashtag for people posting on social media. Don't know how many attendees are posting in the fediverse, but hi to those who are here!

I'm boarding a train to #philly this morning for the Penn Linguistics Conference and then #code4lib -- & hopefully a trip to @iffybooks for the #permacomputing meetup.

As of this morning, there are still some seats available for #Code4Lib 2026, which is being held in Philadelphia the first week of March. I hope to see you there! Their site now has a full schedule, and links for registration: https://2026.code4lib.org/
I wonder if it might be fun to arrange a fediverse get together (lunch, coffee, something) in person at #code4lib?

A screenshot of a phone using the Libby book recommendation engine. It says inspire me with fiction for adults that is scandalous
Libby (the library app) just launched the best new interface for book recommendations I’ve seen in years. #code4lib
@rwg if you feel like that might be your crowd and platform, there is a nice and busy #bots room on the #Code4lib slack.
the #code4lib community has been helpful to share tips & software setups; but long-term, I don't know to solve it; for some scrapers, it's a cat & mouse game as UNC shares.
