<h2>About</h2>

In addition to having a discussion list, a blog aggregator, an IRC channel, an electronic journal, and an annual conference, people independently decided that it might be nice to meet in person more than once a year to talk about stuff they are working on...and to hang out and drink {beverage_of_choice} with fun & knowledgeable people. This page lists the chapters we know about, and is where you can add a local meeting if you want to start one. You can also add local chapters on the <a href="http://wiki.code4lib.org/index.php/Main_Page#Local_.2F_Regional_Groups">code4lib wiki</a>.
