The Library Problem is both a local office, and a franchised set of principles. Seeking volunteer co-authors for this local office: site and Substack, we also have a vision for funding, and therefore to setting up a front office at some point.
Please join founder and researcher Peter Glenn in dreaming big for a team culture founded in cooperation with our technology and using to the utmost technology in ways that enable collaboration and extending our best ideas and dreams for an effective society.
About Peter
Researcher Peter Glenn was cast in the forge of public education and self-taught coding and other work from a young age. He dropped out of high school, saved from bad grades and discipline rebellion by a winning ticket to work as a coder full-time until college-aged. Attending Boston University, he finally found the culmination of his major---philosophy---in formalism, math logic, and thereby math, generally, earning an MA.
Fast forward twenty-five years, and as a seminary-trained (Trinity Anglican Seminary, 2006-2007) math PhD dropout (Carnegie Mellon University, 2004-2006) he reflected on what education and opportunities had seen him through thus far in the advent of the computer technological era.
He posed the Library Problem on Facebook, only to roam and use social media, for a subsequent dozen years, including much informal preaching of the Christian gospel online, and including hesitance to ally with existing church bodies, he learned---having a stint of homelessness---that we must not judge others for their situations in life. He benefited from libraries, and the wild west of social media that can carry a spark of the human spirit, trying to live down a few invaluable experiences such as his work coding, now revived in a year-long self-driven project called Corralled Code.

We seek any respective experience around living in community with computers, especially with the ability to formulate this in terms sociological, historical, technological, and more. We seek a driven company of people who feel the immediate opportunity to shape the world we live in with basic observations and strong stands.
