GIS and geospatial data services are popping up in academic libraries and archives all over Texas! Is your institution part of the trend? We want to hear about it!

Texas Digital Library’s GIS Interest Group is hosting a “PechaKucha Event” a week before GIS Day to share experiences, plans, and ideas about how libraries and archives are supporting and promoting GIS activities throughout the state.

GIS Day PechaKucha Event
Wednesday, November 10, 2021
3:00 pm – 5:00 pm Central
Registration is required. Click here to register.
Once you’ve registered, you will receive a confirmation email from Zoom with a personal link to join.

Whether you’re already offering a full suite of GIS services, planning a one-off event, trying to get some maps online, or are just beginning to imagine how you might make use of GIS technologies, we want to hear from YOU. We invite you to share your work and ideas in what we hope will be an informal, fast-paced, and FUN virtual show-and-tell.PechaKucha events traditionally include presentations of 20 images, with 20 seconds commentary each. In other words…presentations are meant to be LIGHTNING FAST and not very in-depth. Think “talk less, show more.”

See some examples here:

Please use this form to submit your name, institution, and a brief description of what you’d like to share with us. Slides (20 images by 20 seconds each!) should be submitted no later than Friday Nov 5.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact Texas Digital Library at info@tdl.org. We hope to see you there!
