How would one add a common set(folder) of notebooks to be used and  by all 
new users upon first login?

The idea is that there would be some shared folder containing notebooks for 
the admin.  


*Contents of this folder would be copied(not linked) upon creation of a new 
user account.*


Ideally there would two folders for all new users:

One shared (with possibly some notebooks,datasets being write protected)

This is possible:
http://tljh.jupyter.org/en/latest/howto/content/share-data.html#add-a-link-to-the-shared-folder-in-the-user-home-directory

My question is about 
second folder which  would be notebooks which would be individual to the 
user and they could modify at will.

Currently the only way to get new users up to speed is to provide a 
nbgitpuller link.

This is not ideal when people are starting their new 
accounts asynchronously.


As a last resort, I am looking into writing a little script to just copy 
something to individual users.

That is automating something like this: sudo cp 
/home/jupyter-hubadmin/MyNotebook.ipynb /home/jupyter-newuseraccount_foo
The above works but seems very hacky..

Any ideas on what to try ?
