If you’re in the area and want to learn about open source, you might want to attend this event at the Cherry Hill Public Library hosted by the South Jersey Regional Library Cooperative:

August 13: Tech Talk: All Grown Up: Open Source for Libraries:

“Open Source” – a term you may have heard thrown about at conferences and on mailing lists – but what does it mean? This session will not only define the term “Open Source” but will show librarians exactly how it can be used within their libraries.

Learn to separate the myths from the facts, learn about the tools that are available to your libraries and most importantly learn about how open source can free you from the costs associated with many proprietary library products. Click here for complete details and registration form.

If you can’t make this one, check out my presentation schedule to see other classes I’m offering on open source.
