Every single person who thinks Libby is going to shut down forever has literally never worked in a library. I genuinely need you to know this.

The US government does not own Libby. The majority of library funding provided by imls is not for ebook funding.

It's still important to support Libby and support your library's use of evil catalogs, and also look into ways to donate to the systems that they're a part of that directly pay for these catalog fees, but when you look at what is on a large scale impacted by cutting funds to libraries on the federal level, you understand what these cuts are really about.

IMLS helps with the start up funds for various programs and new libraries, the idea has always been to eat the cost of new programs and have the communities surrounding libraries fund them. They have since the 2000's been piloting various ways to make resources more accessible to people and act as a sort of equity program for different communities, with librarians moving to fill what gaps they can in their community resources and having to rely on grants and federal funding to do so.

There are rural and still developing libraries that receive their e-catalog funding via the federal government, but it's not the whole of libraries.

The largest things that are risk are accessibility services through the various programs we've developed for libraries in order to pool resources for the disabled, and national ILL services-- the big names being WorldShare and OCLC, which help patrons access books outside of their systems and have greatly helped with academic libraries. We're also going to see a decrease in supplementary education programs, which because of their rapidly expanding nature have always received federal funding and most states, this is summer reading and after school tutoring.

This is cooking classes, this is service delivery for disabled patrons, this is audiobooks. This is books in Braille. If your library is one of the many that used grants in order to fund distributing COVID tests, I've got bad news. This is hot spots for rural communities where students might not be able to access the internet at home because the infrastructure just isn't there yet. This is libraries that have tried to expand their space to include a food pantry and fill the gaps when people don't have funds to donate. This is niche libraries that provide valuable access to resources, like the federally funded library that provided my patrons with photos of their family when they lived on reservations. This is community education hosted by libraries like the technology courses that helped my patrons set up their first emails. This is money to digitize resources in archives that may otherwise never see the light of day. This is new libraries when there's not a single library for a hundred miles.

When you simplify it all to just ebooks, people want to believe that the solution is just donating regular books or learning to read in other ways. They don't see the whole of what this funding symbolizes.

The Corona pandemic led to a vast expansion in equity services amongst libraries, and with the instability of our economy and the way that legislators have been fighting against taxing the people who should be taxed, none of these programs are enshrined in budgets and bylaws.

Grants aren't fun to write, libraries do not propose specific programs just for shits and giggles. They propose them because they look at the community surrounding them and they realize that there maybe a need. They see where inequality lies, and many librarians try to find a way to solve it.

But this? This is a direct attack on providing opportunity and empathy to all Americans. This is a direct move to limit and punish those who the rich and powerful feel are less than, and it's bullshit.

I love ebooks and what they offer just as much as anyone else, but this is so much more than ecatalogs. Don't erase what this is.

An ETF is an Exchange Traded Fund, which unlike regular Mutual Funds trades like a common stock on a stock exchange. In the simple terms, ETFs are funds that track indexes such as CNX Nifty or BSE Sensex, etc. When you buy shares/units of an ETF, you are buying shares/units of a portfolio that tracks the yield and return of its native index. __ Follow 👉@millionairessaga👈 👉@millionairessaga👈 👉@millionairessaga👈 __ #cocacolaworld #cokeacola #amazonaffiliate #amazonstyle #twittermarketing #binaryoptiontrading #stockbroker #investmentmanagement #financialgrowth #instaforex #investmentportfolio #worldshares #stockmarkets #forexprofits #stockmarketinvesting #investmentstrategies #forexinvestment (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRmClObn7x0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Tag 8 Mission Wanderlust 🇦🇹 🇮🇹 ▪️ ▪️ ▪️ ▪️ Hallo zusammen 👋 🔹 🔹 Heut war es dann endlich soweit!! 😍 6 Uhr aufgestanden, 8 Uhr in Braies ( Südtirol / Italien ) und dann kam die 6 km lange Wanderung, wieder gefühlt nur steil Bergauf Richtung Ziel der Begierde, zum Lago Di Braies, oder auch Pragser Wildsee genannt! 💚💙 so schön, einfach nur so schön 😍 Der Pragser Wildsee (italienisch Lago di Braies) ist ein Bergsee im Pragser Tal in der Südtiroler Gemeinde Prags. Er liegt wenige Kilometer südlich des Hochpustertals in den Pragser Dolomiten. Er ist Teil des Naturparks Fanes-Sennes-Prags und damit ein geschütztes Naturdenkmal. Wir wanderten einmal um den gesamten See und versuchten die Schönheit dieses Orten vollends zu genießen. Am Ende hät ich uns noch früher aus dem Bett treten müssen, weil ab 9 Uhr merkte man dort wie voller es von Minute zu Minute wurde. Einmal um den See, wanderten wir die ganze Strecke wieder zurück und fuhren zurück nach Österreich nach Obertilliach 😃 und morgen geht es weiter, so lang musste ich drauf warten, nun ist meine Zeit in den Dolomiten gekommen! 😍 Euch einen schönen Tag! 🔸 🔸 Sony Alpha 7III Lens Sony 28mm F2.0 . . #LangeWeltreise #pragserwildsee #worldshares #lagodibraies #lagodibraiesofficial #dolomiten #createmoments #germanroamers #weroamabroad #roamnation #dolomites #hellofrom #folkgreen10k #earthoutdoors10k #escapeandwonder #getoutandexplore #dolomiti #südtirol #the_folknature #visitdolomites #dolomite #outdoortones #themoderndayexplorer #allaboutadventures #visitsouthtyrol #mountainstories #southtyrol #zwischenfernwehundwanderlust #mountainadventures #southtirol (hier: Pragser Wildsee-Lago Di Braies) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEFEQMhoMVe/?igshid=louri7gy661s

Since the Cleveland Museum of Art closed on March 14 and reopened on June 30 in response to COVID-19, bolstering its digital presence has been a priority. The Ingalls Library and Museum Archives' new integrated library services platform, WorldShare Management Services from OCLC, enhances access to digital content, such as providing more streamlined access to electronic books and archival images related to the museum’s history. Check it out at http://library.clevelandart.org!

We are grateful to our art library peers for their feedback leading up to and during the implementation process. A special shout-out is extended to the Ingalls Library and Museum Archives staff, particularly the core team: Chloe Bragg (Cataloging Librarian), Susan Hernandez (Digital Archivist and Systems Librarian), and Jason Schafer (Serials and Electronic Resources Librarian).

See the full announcement by OCLC at https://www.oclc.org/en/news/releases/2020/20200709-cleveland-museum-of-art-now-using-wms.html:
