[data-carpentry-discuss] Data Carpentry for librarians in Oregon June 24-26

[Ben Marwick]

Hi everyone,

I'm forwarding a request for a DC workshop for librarians at Oregon 
Health & Science University. It's a little out of scope for me, so I'm 
hoping someone with more library expertise might contact Jackie directly 
to guide her on the workshop content, explain about DC admin fees, etc.

best,

Ben

Hi Jackie,

I circulated your call to our Seattle Software Carpentry email list and
am including here Emilia Gan and Ben Weinstein who are interested to
help (also cc Tracy, the Data Carpentry director). Emilia has instructed 
in our UW SWC workshops and Ben lives in Portland and will be helping 
out at a local SWC workshop this week.

Please feel free to follow up with them directly, and good luck
organizing your workshop!

best,

Ben
