Welcome, Frank! Matt gave some good starting points for orienting yourself to the community. I'd like to add a couple more links to the reading list: - https://github.com/code4lib/antiharassment-policy - the community's Code of Conduct, sometimes referred to as codeofconduct4lib - https://wiki.code4lib.org/How_to_hack_code4lib - Geared more toward the conference, but useful - https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeD77mBp0Y13mFePF8UmDwFrlbxNx3VttEjz_3dgglJeK-Zbg/viewform?c=0&w=1 - Sign up for the Slack channel Spending some time with some of the conference presentations [1] and the Journal [2] will give you a sense as to the scope of interests within the community. Also, you might want to look and see if there is a regional code4lib group near you [3] - many folks start their involvement in the community in these groups. Lastly, there's nothing wrong with lurking the various communication channels :cD [1] https://code4lib.org/conference [2] http://journal.code4lib.org/ [3] https://wiki.code4lib.org/Main_Page#Local_.2F_Regional_Groups Cheers, Becky On Fri, Jan 20, 2017 at 8:57 AM, Matt Sherman <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > We're a moderately informal grassroots group of library tech folks of all > kinds of varying levels of skill and interests.
