Hi, ebook aficianados,
Carmi Parker has updated the Readers First Publisher Price Watch, and the Urban Libraries Council has released a state about the ebook pricing crisis.
The ULC is shopping around their statement (which is public but they will be ramping up once more have signed on). COSLA has already signed on in support.
Also, Illinois appears to be fast-tracking an ebook bill that would trigger Connecticut.
There appears to be lots of momentum with us now.
Thanks for all that you are doing to help!
Michael
