== About the Code4Lib mailing list==
The Code4Lib community is supported by many things, and one of those things is a mailing list. This page describes the list.
will learn a thing or two along the way...
Now-a-days, the list is much more general and about the overall use of computers in libraries. As of this writing, there are about 3,900 subscribers, mostly from the United States, and the list sees about half a dozen postings per week.
The mailing list is an implementation of the venerable LISTSERV software, and it is generously hosted by the Digital Library Federation (DLF) / Council on Library & Information Resources (CLIR).
