Would you like to spend an evening noshing on free hors d’ouvres over stimulating conversation with some tech savvy librarians from MIT, Suffolk University, the MA State Library, and other New England libraries? But of course!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mark your calendars for the\u00a0NEASIST<\/a>\u00a0Fall Meet-up:\u00a0<\/strong>“Hacking the Library: United States of America vs. Aaron Swartz.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Join us for an informal and lively discussion\u00a0about the impending United States of America v. Aaron Swartz case. \u00a0Swartz has been charged with 13 felonies for hacking into the JSTOR database from the MIT network and downloading millions of articles. \u00a0Whose side are you on – was he simply freeing information that should be publicly available, or did he truly commit a crime? \u00a0What does this mean for research libraries? \u00a0How is legislation keeping up with the digital revolution?<\/p>\n
