The advent and distribution of eBooks has reinvented the modern library. With collaborations focused on new models for eBook access and geolocation technology, libraries can harness their resources while also creating a greater sense of community. In this webinar, we will take a look at Ebooks Minnesota, which has found a niche serving classrooms throughout the state with DRM-free eBooks from top K-12 publishers. During the webinar we will showcase usage data, discuss trends, and hear stories about how the project is re-envisioning how simple public and school library collaboration can be in a model that works for everyone, including publishers.

This webinar is presented by Libraries Transform, ALA’s public awareness and advocacy campaign.   It is sponsored by Biblioboard and speakers include media staff, librarians, and technology coordinators from Minnesota schools.
