  "github_readme_excerpt": "# What is Academicons?\n\nAcademicons is a specialist icon font for academics. It contains icons for websites and organisations related to academia that are often missing from mainstream font packages. It can be used by itself, but its primary purpose is to be used as a supplementary package alongside a larger icon set. Go [here](http://jpswalsh.github.io/academicons) to view the full icon set along with instructions for their use.\n\n# Requesting new icons\n\nNew icons can be requested by creating an issue [here](https://github.com/jpswalsh/academicons/issues). Before submitting a request, please check that the following conditions are satisfied:\n\n  * The organisation in question is already using a logo/icon of appropriate dimensions (roughly square). If that doesn\u0027t exist, then there\u0027s really not much that can be done, and the request will have to be ignored until such time that a logo/icon can be provided.\n\n  * An icon of appropriate resolution can be provided or linked to. Ideally, the provided file will be a vector file (*e.g.* SVG, EPS, AI) or a PDF with the vector file embedded. These files are all very easy to work with, and result in the most faithful reproductions of the icon. Altenatively, high resolution raster images (*e.g.* JPEG, PNG, GIF) can work, but only if the resolution is high enough that the underlying shapes can be reproduced. Icons made from raster images take much longer to prepare, and require hand drawing each component and figuring out the exact typeface used for any letters. This process can be rather tedious, and I will only do this if there is significant demand for the icon. Favicon files can be useful in conjunction with larger logos that have non-ideal aspect ratios\u2014where they can indicate which part of the logo to strip down to\u2014but they are pretty much useless by themselves. The only time I have made an icon from a favicon was for arXiv, and that was only because: (i) It was heavily requested, and (ii) I was able to get feedback on the n",
