I've updated the library & library people Starter Pack - let me know if there's anyone you think should be on.
And do share it across other networks to help people come over to the warm side.
I'm trying for a UK slant but we're are a little quiet here so far!

You can 'pin to home' that feed (looks like this on desktop)
