I want to remind everyone that your local library is both physical AND digital. You hate streaming everything because the price is ridiculous? Library. You hate ads because they're every 3 mins or less? Library. You want to reduce your digital footprint? Library. You want sourced info? Library.

Any community software folks out there? I'm trying to find something in the niche between the 'community forum' (threaded discussions) and the 'knowledge base' (storing and ordering info, files etc). Ideally organisation-neutral (it's a cross-org working group) and not chat based (e.g. slack)
