==Local LUGs==

Local Linux User Groups meet (typically weekly orto monthly) to provide support and/or arrange and host presentations for [[Linux]] users, particularly for inexperienced users.

Given that Linux is not dominated by any specific corporate or institutional entity, LUGs are more important for Linux users than other sorts of users' groups. Linux is predominantly user supported and some support is vastly easier via phone or in person than over e-mail or [[USENET]]. LUGs are still primarily focused on hobbyist users and professionals who are engaged in self-directed study.
