Registration

Registration for this event is now open!

Please fill out this Registration Form to reserve your spot.

Cost: US$450: Includes:

• 2 days of workshops and training
• 1 day of hackathon or unconference
• Continental breakfast each day
• coffee/tea throughout the event
• surprise swag item

Refunds can be processed up to 60 days before the event (i.e. up to June 24), minus 3% to cover the cost of the credit card processing fee. We will try to accommodate cancellations that are requested with less than 60 days notice, but it will depend on the total number of registrants at the time. Registration is transferable, to allow another person from the same organization to attend in place of the original person, for example.

Syllabus

The first two days will be structured as workshops and training sessions. The beginning and ending sessions will be single-stream, with all participants together. The middle half will be split into two streams, which we are calling 'Digital Curator' and 'Technologist'.

The 3rd day is considered optional. The main focus is a Hydra/Fedora/Islandora-Archivematica Integration design charette. Space will be provided for a parallel 1 day unconference session, addressing additional participant interests.

• Conference Code of Conduct
• Ada Initiative HowTo

Updates to this coming soon, feel free to add comments here about this topic.

Accommodations & Travel

• Bell Tower Hotel

The Bell Tower is a 3 minute walk from the School of Information. A room block has been reserved at the Bell Tower Hotel, with a group discount rate. A discount code will be provided to all registrants. The group rate is $166 per night for a standard queen room single occupancy, $177 for double occupancy, with king and double bed rooms available as well. This is about $20 off the regular daily rate.

Another option within a 2 or 3 minute walk. Rooms start at $229 per night, being renovated Winter 2016.

There are a number of less expensive options within a 15 minute drive.
