Leaderless Library Policy

About

The Leaderless Library is an open archive of texts, resources, and tools for anyone who is interested in decentralized thought, systems, campaigns, organisms and/or organizations.

The Leaderless Library’s collection is comprised of contributions from the community. We encourage you to submit links to literature, tutorials, videos, relevant organizations and events both virtual and IRL, along with any other resources you feel may be of interest to the community.

You can contribute to the Leaderless Library by sending an email to [email protected]. Please make sure that your submission includes a TITLE, a LINK, a CATEGORY, and any RELEVANT TAGS.

Good Faith Policy

The Leaderless Library asks users to make contributions in good faith. Before submitting or flagging a link, please consider how it pertains to decentralization, distributed systems, and the other values and interests of the community. We also ask that you make an honest appraisal of the material’s merits — low-quality readings are not generally helpful to the community.
