Tonight, the Boston Public Library is hosting an event on the GBS: July 21 at 6:00 p.m. at the BPL, moderated by Maura Marx of the Open Knowledge Commons.

On July 31, we at the Berkman Center are hosting an open workshop on alternative futures for digitizing of books in the shadow of the GBS.  We have 95 registrants so far and will close registration at 100 — so please sign up fast if you are interested (and then add your name to the public wiki, if you’re willing, to let others know you are coming; only 71 people have done so as of right now).
