图书馆培育了蓬勃发展的校园文化，并作为“第三空间”发挥作用，而不是直接与学科联系在一起。[i]图书馆支持正式和非正式的学习，拥有多用途空间，并作为社区的连接点。由于这些原因，它们是举办黑客马拉松等活动的理想场所，这些活动与图书馆优先考虑的外展、数据和信息素养以及专注于社会公益的参与保持一致。黑客马拉松的策划者可以在学术图书馆或公共图书馆找到可能的合作伙伴，因为它们的物理空间可以容纳公共外展活动，而且许多图书馆已经提供了类似的服务，比如创客空间。图书馆可以单独作为活动的主办方，也可以通过建立社区合作伙伴关系、为活动制定主题或利用图书馆工作人员现有的专业知识来嵌入规划过程。本文以2014年至2020年为重点，将重点介绍图书馆黑客马拉松的历史和演变，并将其作为外展活动，重点关注图书馆资料、数据、工作流程和内容的使用。
Libraries foster a thriving campus culture and function as “third space,” not directly tied to a discipline.[i] Libraries support both formal and informal learning, have multipurpose spaces, and serve as a connection point for their communities. For these reasons, they are an ideal location for events, such as hackathons, that align with library priorities of outreach, data and information literacy, and engagement focused on social good. Hackathon planners could find likely partners in either academic or public libraries as their physical spaces accommodate public outreach events and many are already providing similar services, such as makerspaces. Libraries can act solely as a host for events or they can embed in the planning process by building community partnerships, developing themes for the event, or harnessing the expertise already present in the library staff. This article, focusing on years from 2014 to 2020, will highlight the history and evolution of hackathons in libraries as outreach events and as a focus for using library materials, data, workflows, and content.
