 thanks for getting back to me.



I'm on the planning committee for the Spring Conference, Cape Cod and
Islands Library Association, to be held Mar 20, 2008.



I want to know when and where on Jan 12 this installfest is being held, as I
(and my husband, a software developer) would like to attend.



I would also like to know of any libraries (public, academic, special,
school) which have installations of Ubuntu in place.  I am curious to know
of the experiences of NON technical persons (like librarians) + also how
they have handled virus protection etc.





Depending on how feasible Ubuntu might be, it is possible we may want to
include mention of Ubuntu in some way. OR a display or a table… I don't
know.



Brenda Collins,   Librarian, Cape Cod Community College.

Hello,

thanks for your message! We are still trying to figure out plans for the
January 12th InstallFest. What did you have in mind? A special demo for
librarians?

Thanks!

Hello,

I'm only a librarian, but think Ubuntu has much to offer libraries.
Especially community college libraries.

Where is the January 12 installfest?   I would  like to come and bring a
very technical person.

I would like to contact LIBRARIANS who have implemented Ubuntu in
Massachusetts.

Can you put me in touch?   OR direct me to someone who can put me in touch?

Thank you!

Brenda
