A '''Linux User Group''' or '''Linux Users' Group''' ('''LUG''') or '''GNU/Linux User Group''' ('''GLUG''') is a private, generally non-profit or [[Nonprofit organization|not-for-profit organization]] that provides support and/or education for [[Linux]] users, particularly for inexperienced users. The term commonly refers to local groups that meet in person but is also used to refer to online support groups that may have members spread over a very wide area and that do not organize, or are not dependent on, physical meetings. Many LUGs encompass [[FreeBSD]] and other [[Free software|free-software]] / [[open source]] Unix-based [[operating system]]s.
