EveryLibrary Partners with Mozilla for Net Neutrality

In case you haven’t heard, the open Internet’s founding principle is under attack. Policymakers in the U.S. are considering rules that would erase “Net Neutrality,” the principle that all data on the Internet should be treated equally. If these rule changes go through, many fear it will create a “two-tier” Internet, where monopolies are able to charge huge fees for special “fast lanes” while everyone else gets the slow lane. This would threaten the very openness, level playing field, and innovation that make the web great — not only in the U.S. but around the world.

LJ Coverage of Rapid Response Fund

The folks at Library Journal provided some solid coverage of our new – and growing – Rapid Response Fund.  Donors like you have helped get the Fund in shape quickly.  We still have to raise about $2,500 to make sure we have enough on hand to answer the first 2 or 3 challenges with enough resources to do it right.  Click through to LJ’s coverage for more about our plans.  And come back to donate.  It’s a game changer for library advocacy.
