That's so cool! I'd be interested in this if anyone from the SF area plans
to drive there and is interested in carpooling. (I'd be happy to share the
cost.)

Hi everyone! I’ve volunteered to help coordinate an
information and
editing event at the Monterey Public Library in beautiful Monterey
California in conjunction with the Internet Librarian conference. This is a
free event. The space will accommodate up to 75 people and we already have
20 people signed up. If you are interested in helping out please let me
know. Depending on numbers it would be great to have 10 people with Wiki
experience. I think it will be fun, and what a beautiful location.
Saturday, Oct 22nd
10am-1pm followed by a tour of the Monterey Public Library
