You won't believe how Ireland became a literary powerhouse! As the Guardian put it, 'We all read like hell!' Our nation’s reading culture is thriving. Libraries Ireland is fostering talent from Nobel laureates to rising stars. bit.ly/3yK5RUE

We probably don’t say this enough, but did you know if you’re a member of one library, you’re a member of all libraries? That means you can borrow items from any library in the country and drop them back to any library too!

Do you know libraries are bloody brilliant..was in Tallaght yesterday for an appointment & being early (🙄) went into the fabulous library & borrowed a book to keep me going & will return it to my local library when finished. Just fantastic all round.

Publishing practices are making ebooks unaffordable, unsustainable, & inaccessible to libraries. We were delighted to work with the @LAIonline taskforce on ebooks & @tcdsu on this pre-budget submission. #ebooksos @Hohoyanna @cathalmccauley @tzu_ham @dunnesiobhan @TheUSI @kr21org

"Digital preservation means keeping the stored information cataloged, accessible, and usable on current media, which requires constant effort and expense. Furthermore, while contemporary information has economic value and pays its way, there is no business case for archives."
Long Now Foundation@longnow

@AdrienneEve As @stewartbrand wrote in 01999, "digital storage is easy; digital preservation is not." To save ourselves from a digital dark age, we need to practice long-term thinking with the vast amounts of information we produce online. longnow.org/ideas/escaping…

@AdrienneEve @stewartbrand Staving off a Digital Dark Age requires foresight to prevent: - Link rot, where the connections between sites become unusable - Institutional decay, where information becomes stranded on the hard drives of defunct organizations - File format drift, which can leave data unreadable
