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!

Cooperative Purchase Survey
Possible Cooperative Purchases
At CLiC we are approached by a wide variety of vendors. It is important to us that we are working with and securing discounts that your library and community care about.
Recently, we have a few interesting vendors that we would like your opinion on. Are these products something that your library and community find value in?
We would appreciate it if you would please take a few minutes to read and either watch the video or visit the trial and give us your feedback for the following four products.
LAFCON Scholarship
CLiC is offering scholarships for the first ever Library Advocacy and Funding Conference (LAFCON) hosted by EveryLibrary. The conference is virtual, and runs September 26th-28th, 2022.
What’s exciting is this conference is specifically designed to bring new knowledge to libraries. That’s because you’ll be hearing almost exclusively from people and organizations outside of this industry. You won’t be hearing from the same library presenters and organizations that we see at most other library conferences. Instead, EveryLibrary has sought out presenters and curated a conference agenda that will bring you all new information and ideas. Take a look at the LAFCON 2022 agenda.
Apply for the CLiC Scholarship below. Application DEADLINE is Tuesday, September 6, 2022.
