Contributing to Handbook

All Persson group members are encouraged to contribute to the handbook. Feel free to add pages and reorganize as needed, just use your best judgement. Use this link to edit the handbook and contact the Group Librarian if you need edit privileges.

Please keep in mind these guidelines for contribution:

1. The handbook is a collaborative investment. You have knowledge that will help a group member, please share it! A thorough, up-to-date handbook benefits all of us.

2. Contributions won't be perfect. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good! You are encouraged to add your knowledge to the handbook even if the format isn't highly polished.

3. Private resources should link to Google Drive. If content belongs in the handbook but isn't appropriate for public release, put the document on the Persson Group Google Drive and include a link in the Handbook.

4. Add work-in-progress to the table below. If you are working on something let everyone know in the Group Handbook Tasks table.

The table below catalogs the areas where the handbook needs improvement. Please add tasks as you see fit and add yourself as a volunteer if you can contribute.
