Senate Poised to Slash NDIIPP Funding
The Disruptive Library Technology Jester and Free Range Librarian blogs have sounded a warning that $47 million of unobligated current-year funding for the National Digital Information Infrastructure and Preservation Program is in serious danger of being rescinded.
House Joint Resolution 20 has been passed in the House and is now being considered by the Senate.
The NDIIPP 2005 Annual Review provides a detailed look at the work of this important Library of Congress program.
See Murray’s Jester posting for the cutback details and check out his protest letter to Ohio’s Senators.
