How do I become a contributor?

The easiest and best way is to contact the knowledge base team at kb-help@mit.edu. An RT ticket is also created to ensure tracking and follow up on any questions.

Contributions are encouraged

Remember that you can also always suggest an article to be added by someone else, resources permitting. But the surest way to get articles into the KB is to write them yourself!
