We laid out this Code of Conduct not because we expect bad behavior within our group but because we believe expressing a clear policy is an important recognition of our existing respectful community space. Just as journalism codes of ethics confirm our profession&#39;s common acknowledgment of important values, so too does this shared code of behavior.<\/p>\n<p>We ask you to be mindful of how you interact with others. All attendees, speakers, sponsors and volunteers at LION Publishers events, as well as participants in other public or private member activities, are required to abide by our Code of Conduct<\/p>\n<p>Need help? Contact any member of the LION Publishers staff or Board of Directors in person at our event, or by email at&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:membership@lionpublishers.com\">membership@lionpublishers.com<\/a>.
