This was the content repository for the Libraries Hacked website, previously hosted at https://www.librarieshacked.org. Now archived as the latest website uses a single Jekyll repository with content externally hosted in a separate blog.
All content on the website is stored in markdown (.md) format. The website uses a Content Management System called Pico. This does not rely on any external database, but uses files stored within a content directory.
This repository holds all the content. Directories are used to split the content into sections.
