SUMMARY:Ask.CI, the Q&A Site for Research Computing ­- Year 1 Lessons Lear
 ned, Plans for Year 2
DESCRIPTION:Ask.CI, the Q&A Site for Research Computing ­- Year 1 Lessons 
 Learned, Plans for Year 2\n\nMa, Culich, Battelle, Braiterman, Brunson...\
 n\nIn September, 2017, the Northeast Cyberteam began a project to build a 
 Q&A site to optimize dissemination of knowledge for research computing. Th
 e site was launched at PEARC18, and a naming contest at the conference yie
 lded Ask.Cyberinfrastructure.org (Ask.CI).  \n\nThe goal of Ask.CI is to a
 ggregate answers to a broad spectrum of questions that are commonly asked 
 by the research computing community. As researchers, staff, students, and 
 other users ask and answer questions on Ask.CI, they are creating a shared
  knowledge base for the larger community, and alleviating the burden of a 
 central resource to provide support to a user base. For smaller institutio
 ns, this provides a wealth of knowledge that was not previously available 
 in an easily searchable Q&A form. For larger institutions, this novel, sel
 f-service model frees up time for facilitators and cyberinfrastructure eng
 ineers to focus on more advanced subject matter, thereby elevating the pra
 ctice.  \n\nEstablishing a Q&A site of this nature requires some tenacity.
  In partnership with the Campus Champions, Ask.CI has gained traction, and
  continues to engage the broader community to firmly establish the platfor
 m as a powerful tool for research computing. In the year since launch, Ask
 .CI has attracted nearly 100,000 page views, hundreds of contributors, and
  a broad audience that spans the U.S., and parts of Europe and Asia. \n\nA
 t this BOF, the Ask.CI team will discuss strategies, key accomplishments, 
 challenges, and plans for the upcoming year.\n\nBirds of a Feather\nBirds
