[Libs-Or] ODLC/Library2Go accepting applications for membership

[Ottow, Carrie]

The Oregon Digital Library Consortium (ODLC) is now accepting
applications for public library membership for fiscal year 2011-12 (July
2011-June 2012). ODLC is a group of public libraries that contract for
downloadable library materials for our patrons.  Our Library2Go
(http://library2go.lib.overdrive.com) collection, purchased through
Overdrive, includes thousands of ebooks, audiobooks and videos for
adults and children.  

We are organized with bylaws, a governing board, and committee chairs
who's many hands make light work for all. Annual maintenance fees for
membership in ODLC are based on population served, require a $1,500
start up fee and may require SIP license fees. Groups of libraries
sharing the same server can be added under one fee. 
 
If your public library is interested in joining the consortium, please
see the  "Procedures for Joining ODLC As of July 1, 2011,"  fill out a
preliminary application form, and return it to me by March 1, 2011.  The
procedures and application are posted on the ODLC web page:

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
