Online Northwest is a conference addressing issues at the intersection of libraries, technology and culture. This year we have an exciting program that includes presentations and workshops on digital inclusion, wearable tech, library as publisher, code playgrounds, digital assets management, data visualization and more. View the conference program at: http://onlinenorthwest.org/2015-program/

Mita Williams<http://leddy.uwindsor.ca/staff/mita-williams>, User Experience Librarian at the University of Windsor, will start off the day with her keynote presentation: Teach for America. Code for America. Librarianing for America.


The motto for Code for America is "a new kind of public service".  The motto of CrisisCommons is "we help connect people to help those in need".

This talk is not going to dwell on the matter that librarians lack a good word - much less an official motto - to describe the work we do.  Instead, a case will be made for a new program to be designed to get more librarians working within more organizations in more communities.
