Mailing lists

These open discussion lists are a great place to float ideas, ask questions, offer help, and find collaborators.

  • publiclaboratory@googlegroups.com is a general civic science community mailing list. Just email here if you aren't sure what to do!
  • Also see our other mailing lists, which include local event lists, tools lists (like balloon mapping or spectroscopy), and those for working groups.

Using and contributing to PublicLab.org

The Public Lab website is where our community is developing open-source documentation and literature around our DIY civic science research.

Posting research notes

Research notes are the easiest and best way to share (i.e. open source) your work in a more permanent form. Post a research note about your work to solicit input, publish tests or prototypes, ask questions, or just to keep track of links and research documents.
