PDWG strives for low organizational overhead. That said, the following groups keep this community alive and functioning. See who belongs to each group in the list of people involved, below.

The **Organizing Team** is composed of 3-5 members who volunteer to commit to leading the working group for at least a year and who meet regularly (approximately monthly). This group sets the vision and strategy for PDWG. They also coordinate and host [happy hours](/community/pdwg-happy-hours), and manage access to shared communication platforms including the Google Group, Slack Workspace, and Google Drive. Contact the Organizing Team at _paleodatawg@gmail.com_.

The **Knowledge Hub Editorial Board** is composed of 3-5 members who set style guides and procedures for content contributions to the Paleo Data Knowledge Hub (this site). They manage the process of integrating community content, and may also generate content themselves. Contact the Knowledge Hub Editorial Board on [GitHub](https://github.com/orgs/paleo-data/teams/knowledge-hub-editorial-board).

The **Paleo Data Portal Steering Committee** is composed of 2-3 members who actively use the {% include resource_link filename='pdp.yml' %} and who make operational decisions for it. This committee is modeled after other successful examples in the world of Symbiota. Contact the Paleo Data Portal Steering Committee at _paleodatawg@gmail.com_ and include "paleo data portal" or "PDP" in your subject line.

## Get involved

Any and all paleontology collections (or allied) professionals are encouraged to participate in PDWG! We follow [these community norms](/community/norms), including acting and interacting in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming, and diverse community.

- **Google Drive**: Our [shared folder on Google Drive](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Ne9B1bIGGzGhreEHMxoCVEwPaIhIILVx?usp=sharing) is a neutral, non-institutional space where community members can curate and manage access to collaborative working documents and resources that do not fit well (or yet) on this knowledge hub. Happy hour meeting materials live within this Google folder. Please request access if you think you should be enabled to edit files in this folder!

- **Slack**: Our primary tool for asynchronous conversation between individual community members and interest groups within the PDWG community. [To join the Slack workspace click here](https://join.slack.com/t/paleo-data/shared_invite/zt-1nt02uuds-Yp40SwjPaHYSmwam1q3rZg). If you are unfamiliar with Slack, see this [3-minute video overview](https://vimeo.com/434234678) of how to use it up for the Paleo Data workspace. Ours is a free Slack workspace, which means messages are only accessible for a 90-day history.

- **Zoom**: We host happy hour and other synchronous meetings on [Zoom](https://www.zoom.com), and occasionally use Zoom's built-in collaboration tools like Whiteboard. Look for a link to the happy hour Zoom room in announcements posted to the Google Group and Slack.

We also frequently use [EasyRetro](https://easyretro.io) as a feedback tool for community activities, either synchronous or asynchronous, and [Zenodo](https://zenodo.org/) is an essential tool for contributing individual/institutional expertise to this knowledge hub–learn more about that in our [contributor guidelines]().
