FAQ: Donation statusbar - and why we don´t use kickstarter

Thank you for your support for Help TWIL.  We have added a very simple statusbar to the site. It will be manualy updated because we get individual status from each account. At this moment there are exactly the same amount donated in Dollars and Euros. We have two accounts to minimize exchange fees.

We have been asked why we don´t use kickstarter. We would have loved to but it is not possible, since This Week in Libraries is not physically loacted in the US.

Hi there, my name is Jo and I am a Youth Outreach Librarian from Logan in Queensland Australia and I am doing my bit to support the This Week in Libraries project.

Hi I'm Mace Ojala, and doing a little video from a rural unconference in the mountains near Oslo, Norway. This Week In Libraries (TWIL) has been doing a great job presenting many passionate colleagues in this profession, and that has really motivated me personally. I think we should use the TWIL at our work, during our studies really just embrace this fantastic resource Jaap, Erik and all the guests have created for us all. Let's return the favour by giving them some money :) Thanks guys!
