Every year, we ask AspenCat Member Libraries to pledge money for the upcoming year, so that we ensure your patrons have access to a wide variety of eBooks and eAudiobooks. This year, with many of your patrons continuing to stay home more and explore our Pay Per Use collection, that pledge is even more important. If you do not know much about cloudLibrary or do not see the benefit to your patrons, please see the following fast facts!
Happy Holidays
CLiC Offices will be closed December 26 & 27 and January 2 in observance of holiday dates.

Courier ILL Data
This post/page previously featured a brief form, used by a handful of libraries to report their ILL data. It has since been retired, since a majority of libraries in Colorado participate in the three major resource-sharing networks: Prospector, Marmot and AspenCat.
Please direct any questions to courierhelp@clicweb.org
Thanks!
Update: FY22-23 Courier Estimates
The Courier Team has initiated the annual process of sending out courier cost estimates. Those should be showing up in your email inboxes starting September 23. If you have an urgent need for your library’s estimate, please email courierhelp@clicweb.org and we’ll work to expedite that document.
Pause for a moment and think about the impact of statewide resource sharing. Here’s a quote from a Western Slope library patron about why statewide resource sharing is so important, “I am an avid reader, usually having at least 2 books on my reading table, as well as one audio book in my car for commuting and another audio book in my house for distraction during housework and exercising. I always have several materials on my Hold list (today I have 8). I am so grateful for the courier service that brings me materials from our District, as well as outside it. In fact, my life would be so much drearier without it!”That right there is why we do all the work that makes statewide resource sharing happen!
