OCLUG promotes and supports the use of Linux in the community of Ottawa.

OCLUG was founded in March, 1997. Its membership is diverse, ranging from people without computer knowledge to proverbial gurus. OCLUG was created to help promote Linux in the Ottawa area and maintains several mailing lists to help accomplish this goal and to provide technical support. OCLUG holds monthly general meetings.

Free computer help is provided for those who want to use a computer with Linux. This technical help is provided by volunteers and is available primarily through the OCLUG Linux discussion mailing list (see "Mailing Lists" link in the main menu).
