On June 6th in Toronto, the Ontario Library Information Technology Association (OLITA) is proud to be holding a one-day Digital Odyssey conference with the theme of “Code, the Most Important Language in the World.” The focus is on improving programming language literacy and becoming active in code and our communities.
The event will include workshops on Learning Through Games and Train the Trainer (Teaching Programming with Scratch) that you can bring back to your library. There will also be sessions on running and participating in open source software projects, using and developing APIs, and linked data in libraries, archives, and museums. Registration is $160 for OLA members and $190 for non-members. Register now to attend a great event, and encourage your colleagues who may be interested in learning about coding to register as well!
