Join like-minded people from across the cultural heritage sector at a free barcamp in your region, supported by the National Digital Forum.

NDF barcamps are a chance to get together and share ideas about the digital work of libraries, museums, archives, galleries and others in the cultural heritage space. 

Barcamps, or unconferences as they are otherwise known, are participant-driven events where attendees create the agenda and run the sessions.

Details of the different barcamps are provided below. Please register soon if you plan to attend one: http://www.ndf.org.nz/barcamp-registration/
