Dear Nate and everyone, The Koha Gruppo Italiano looks forward to participating. In the past, we have promoted Koha through: • organizing numerous events and workshops, including conferences on topics such as open source software in libraries; linked data; and hands-on Koha workshops in Rome and beyond • the distribution of informational flyers, gadgets, t-shirts and pens during events and conferences • our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/KohaGruppoItaliano/ • our home page (which will soon move to Wordpress): http://www.kohagruppoitaliano.moonfruit.com/ • securing two grants from EBSCO for Koha development, including the implementation of ElasticSearch in Koha and integration with YBP’s GOBI platform, as well as the Italian union catalog, the Indice SBN. We look forward to continuing these efforts together, Stefano Bargioni, Pontifical University of the Holy Cross Sebastian Hierl, American Academy in Rome Juan Diego Ramirez, Pontifical University of the Holy Cross Franziska Wallner, American University of Rome -- Sebastian Hierl, Ph.D. Drue Heinz Librarian, Arthur & Janet C.

Hi Bob,
Great idea! I have set up an email address for anyone who would like to send content. I can also set up a Dropbox folder for larger files if needed. The email address to send content that we can use to market Koha is kohamarketing@bywatersolutions.com <mailto:kohamarketing@ bywatersolutions.com>. People who are interested in taking part in this initiative can also email me at this address and once we have a team we will all receive emails sent to that address.
If you are someone who wants to help contribute to the community in ways other than doing development work this is the perfect thing for you!!

Hi Nate, Good initiative, congratulations. We can't participate in your committee but we do write stuff from time to time that could be more generally useful. Will you give consideration to setting up an email address where such stuff could be sent, for review/distribution by your volunteers? Just a thought. Bob Birchall Calyx
