BibCamp
The BibCamp is a library event that has been held annually at different locations in Germany since 2008 . It is an event in the style of a barcamp . The BibCamp was the first unconference in German-speaking countries. In contrast to traditional conferences, the BibCamp does not have a fixed conference program and no invited speakers. An active exchange of information between experts and interested parties in an open atmosphere is the focus of every Bibcamp. Each participant can propose a topic and participate in the discussions. The BibCamp exists according to the motto "There are no visitors, only participants!"
history
The BibCamp was conceived as an alternative to conventional events such as the Librarian's Day. Topics from related areas such as archives , museums , e-learning , information science , knowledge management and IT development should be presented and discussed. The BibCamp was born out of the desire to address more current topics and to have more time to discuss.
The first BibCamp in German-speaking countries took place in Potsdam in 2008 under the motto “Library 2.0 - From Theory to Practice” . It was the first library event organized as an unconference. The possibilities of Web 2.0 for the libraries of the future were actively discussed. All participants had the opportunity to take part in various sessions , to hold their own lectures and to actively discuss. The wiki that was set up also served as the homepage of the BarCamp, on which the participants could enter suggested topics weeks before the start of the event. Since then, the event has been continued annually with changing organizational teams in different cities.
