I heard from Mary Langman at MLA that Intellectual Propery Subcommittee ranking member, Howard Coble (R-NC) is stalling on bringing this to the House floor so please do urge your representative to support this worthwhile legislation. They’ll be back in session on Thursday. For background, see MLA’s page on orphan works.
EPA is enhancing access to library services for the public and Agency staff. EPA will open previously closed libraries in its National Library Network, with walk-in access for the public and EPA staff. This notice provides information regarding how members of the public can access the libraries and services beginning September 30, 2008.
The MLA Board began a new blog, MLA Connections, to provide an easy way for the MLA Board and the membership to communicate with each other. From Mary Ryan’s welcome message:
The blog will include updates on priorities and major initiatives, Board activities and decisions, and activities of committees, task forces, sections, and chapters. The blog will also be used to respond to MLA-related postings on individual blogs, instead of just responding on each blog, which many people might not see.
I added its feed to mlaphil.org, so you’ll see recent posts in the right colum. You can also sign up for email notifications.
