Library Freedom Institute

Library Freedom Institute (LFI) is a privacy-focused six-month program for librarians to teach them the skills necessary to thrive as Privacy Advocates; from educating community members, to installing privacy software, to influencing public policy.

General course information and resources

  • Code of Conduct
  • LFI message board: Most LFI discussion happens here. Anyone can read public posts on the board, but only LFI cohort members can post.
  • LFI Github: We'll use this Github repo occasionally when we need to host large size documents.
  • Riseup mailing list: a private list that cohort members get subscribed to when LFI begins.
  • Zoom video conference room: a private Zoom room that cohort members get the address to when LFI begins.
  • LFI/LFP logos, slide templates, and some other resources
