DLF Groups
DLF is built for grassroots action. A committed community gravitates to us from within and beyond DLF’s institutional membership, working across boundaries of many kinds and making the Digital Library Federation a force for good.
Here you can learn what our more active DLF groups are up to. Interested in the DLF Digest, our monthly DLF Groups news round-up? Subscribe to the DLF-Announce listserv. Want to start a new group or revive an older one? Check out the DLF Organizer’s Toolkit. We’re not big on red tape. Just let us know what you’re planning and how we can help.
