Patrons desire more digital access to works\, yet the e-book market is fraught with license-only limitations. CDL helps to preserve the power of the print; it allows a library to recapture the significant legal and fiscal value in its collections. In this one-hour presentation\, Kyle K. Courtney (Harvard Library) and Matthew Kopel (Cornell University Library) will give an overview of both the law that underlies CDL and the practical questions libraries must ask before embarking on a CDL project of their own. Featuring a robust Q&A to help dispel common myths and misperceptions\, this webinar is a great starting place for both academic and public library administrators and staff. \nTo help promote candor and create a safe environment for asking questions and sharing ideas\, the session will not be recorded. \nPresenters: \nMatthew Kopel is a Copyright Specialist at Cornell University Library in Ithaca\, NY. \nKyle K. Courtney is program manager and copyright advisor at Harvard Library’s Office for Scholarly Communications. His “White Paper on Controlled Digital Lending of Library Books” (co-authored with Dave Hansen) defined the legal and policy rationale for CDL: https://dash.harvard.edu/handle/1/42664235 \nRegister @ SCRLC URL:https://clrc.org/event/scrlc-webinar-right-to-loan/ LOCATION:Online Via Zoom\, NY\, United States CATEGORIES:Continuing Education,Webinar ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://clrc.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/SCRLC-Logo-w-tag-rgb.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20200924T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20200924T140000 DTSTAMP:20240329T045256 CREATED:20200721T134131Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200721T134131Z UID:10000991-1600952400-1600956000@clrc.org SUMMARY:WNYLRC Webinar: What Libraries Need to Know to Survive a Ransomware Attack DESCRIPTION:Ransomware (software that blocks access to systems until money is paid to the attacker) can be disruptive and expensive.

This presentation will focus on cybersecurity needs to help libraries protect their systems from ransomware. I will walk participants through the steps to take at your institution to ensure that you can survive a ransomware attack. The class will cover plans\, tools\, and techniques that can help lower the risk of a ransomware attack\, regardless of your budget. \nThis webinar will not be recorded.

We’ll provide expert advice\, tools\, and best practices to help you: \n1. Coordinate a family outreach and engagement campaign using our 10-day action plan.\n2. Train your team on best practices and useful tools to support outreach to families\n3. Organize and visualize your home digital access data and identify available provider options using our mapping tool. \nGrace leads the Digital Bridge K-12 Initiative’s work with states\, partnering with education leaders to increase access to Internet connectivity for all K-12 students. She has 15 years of experience in education and technology\, working to close the digital divide and support equity in public education. \nEllen is a program director for Digital Bridge K-12\, helping bring to life products and playbooks to support broadband infrastructure upgrades across the country.
