Banned Books Week: September 22-28, 2019

8/9/2019

0 Comments

 
Banned Books Week is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read. Typically held during the last week of September, it spotlights current and historical attempts to censor books in libraries and schools. It brings together the entire book community — librarians, booksellers, publishers, journalists, teachers, and readers of all types — in shared support of the freedom to seek and to express ideas, even those some consider unorthodox or unpopular.

The books featured during Banned Books Week have all been targeted for removal or restriction in libraries and schools. By focusing on efforts across the country to remove or restrict access to books, Banned Books Week draws national attention to the harms of censorship.

Inclusive Services Assessment and Guide for Wisconsin Public Libraries

8/6/2019

0 Comments

 
We all know libraries and their services are supposed to be available to everyone. It’s even in Wisconsin law that public libraries have to be accessible to people with “special needs.”

But how can we predict which special needs we need to accommodate? … or which unique combinations of barriers and assets people will need us to address?

The Inclusive Services Assessment and Guide for Wisconsin Public Libraries is meant to be your roadmap for these issues. To see what we mean by this, watch this short video about how one library navigated inclusive services.

BadgerLink Outage August 9 - 12, 2019

8/1/2019

1 Comment

 
BadgerLink Logo
The BadgerLink authentication and Super Search platform upgrade will occur next weekend, August 9-12. 
BadgerLink resources and Super Search will be offline at 7pm on Friday, August 9th, and be back online at 7am on Monday morning, August 12th
. This upgrade will not affect functionality of any BadgerLink resource, however the Super Search platform will see new features and more modern styling, and the BadgerLink authenticated URLs will change. Super Search screen shots and help documents will be posted very soon!

For library and school staff:
  • Effective August 12th all BadgerLink authenticated URLs will change. Our vendor is providing a redirect for up to 6 months.
  • Any library or school that places these authenticated URLs on a website, within a proxy, or in another SSO application such as OpenAthens, will need to edit the URLs no later than early February 2020 in order to continue providing users access outside of the BadgerLink website.
  • For reference the current authenticated URL structure is: https://www.wiscat.net/homepages/CustomerWide/ValidateGlobalIP.asp?cuid=stwi&lid=stwi&dataid=71&term=
  • The new URL structure will be formatted as: https://www.wiscat.net/ext/validateglobal.php?cid=stwi&lid=stwi&dataid=71

For BadgerLink users:
  • Access to all resources, either through the BadgerLink website or through your library/school website, will be down August 9-12.
  • If you have issues accessing any resource after the upgrade and are navigating through your library or school website, try the BadgerLink website instead. Contact us if you continue to have any issues.

Thank you for your understanding during this downtime! Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
