Project Update

Anonymous's picture

We're moving closer to the launch of the e-branch project!

At the end of October and beginning of November the Idaho Commission for Libraries will provide training sessions across the state. Sign up! Each library that attends a session will have an e-branch site to work on - with the intent that they'll leave the workshop with a ready-to-launch site.

After those sessions, interested libraries can contact us to get accounts.

We are in the process of having a user agreement for participating libraries vetted. We'll share more information about it at the sessions. At the moment the document is in flux. Once we have it ready, we'll share it. We understand that many libraries will likely want to bring this in front of their boards, and we're making every effort to get it to you in a timely fashion. If you haven't had a chance to review it before your training session, no worries. You can still work on your site. We'll just ask that you not market it to your users until you've accepted the agreement.

If you have questions about the agreement, contact me.

Lastly, this site is a little inactive at the moment. After the launch, however, we'll be encouraging libraries with help requests, questions, and comments to congregate in our forums. Eventually, this will be a community site.
