The Library Society of the World

LSW is now on Goodreads! Come join us!

WordPress 3.0 and BuddyPress are fully installed and should be running smoothly, more or less!

If you already have an account on this site (Josh or someone else would have sent you information, in that case), your old login and password should work. If you don’t have one already, please go ahead and create one, and welcome on board! We have forums! You can make posts to the front of the site! You can give gifts, including LSW Badges!

Go crazy, and if you have any questions, please let me know. newrambler on gmail/gtalk or comment here is your best bet.

Abigail Goben organized and edited a cool video showing a worldwide bunch of LSW members and allies singing Jonathan Coulton‘s song “Code Monkey.” It’s terrific!

Finally! I have posted the entries from the LSW Coloring Contest (blogged here previously). You can see the entries on Flickr (or in the slideshow below) and then vote (once only, please) for your favorite. You can also nominate any entry for a special award.

A prize (at least one) is at stake. Please vote responsibly.

Not that you should feel compelled to discuss before making changes, but in case you want to, we’re doing a little bit of brainstorming about the site on the new wiki.

The Library Society of the World has switched from Drupal to WordPress. We’re now rebuilding the site from scratch. If you’d like to help us out, let us know.

The Drupal site hasn’t gone away completely, but it’s been relocated to drupal.thelsw.org.
