Thought this was very interesting!

During WWII, the US military was dangerously short on intelligence after decades of underfunding. The unlikely solution? Librarians. They were recruited to gather vital information from library shelves, and some were sent overseas as spies, crossing enemy lines to smuggle documents out of occupied Europe.

Digital services are key! Let’s support this effort!

ULC joins our peers at the Association for Rural & Small Libraries (ARSL), the Chief Officers of State Library Agencies (COSLA), Canadian Urban Libraries Council / Conseil des bibliothèques urbaines du Canada (CULC/CBUC), and the Public Library Association (PLA) to publicly call attention to the e-books pricing crisis and demand change from the largest publishers.

This effort matters because it sends a message that, as organizations advocating for and representing nearly all public libraries in the US and Canada – small and large, urban and rural, and everything in between – we stand united for change while open for dialogue, at a moment when states are turning up the pressure on publishers with legislative efforts.
