OCLC awarded IMLS grant for new initiative for public access to digital content

12 Jul 12

contacts: OCLC ,

    
The purpose of the grant is to more fully understand the challenges that US public libraries face in providing e-book content to borrowers, as they ensure that all Americans continue to have access to commercially produced content through their local public libraries, even as formats change. OCLC will partner with the American Library Association (ALA) and the Public Library Association (PLA) to review the e-book landscape and jointly develop recommendations for managing the e-book environment, in order to ensure adequate public access to these emerging resources.
