Internet Archive ~ "National Emergency Library"
The Internet Archive has announced its official launch of the "National Emergency Library" via a blog post today, which provides Digitized Books to Students and the Public due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
The National Emergency Library, a collection of books that supports emergency remote teaching, research activities, independent scholarship, and intellectual stimulation while universities, schools, training centers, and libraries are closed.
In a blog post, The Internet Archive explains:
To address our unprecedented global and immediate need for access to reading and research materials, as of today, March 24, 2020, the Internet Archive will suspend waitlists for the 1.4 million (and growing) books in our lending library by creating a National Emergency Library to serve the nation’s displaced learners. This suspension will run through June 30, 2020, or the end of the US national emergency, whichever is later.There are over 1.4 million (1,426,434) digitized books available to read, with more being added regularly.
Moreover, the Internet Archive added,
During the waitlist suspension, users will be able to borrow books from the National Emergency Library without joining a waitlist, ensuring that students will have access to assigned readings and library materials that the Internet Archive has digitized for the remainder of the US academic calendar and that people who cannot physically access their local libraries because of closure or self-quarantine can continue to read and thrive during this time of crisis, keeping themselves and others safe.
Available Books:
The National Emergency Library includes all the books from Phillips Academy Andover and Marygrove College, and much of Trent University’s collections, as well as over a million other titles donated from other libraries to readers worldwide.
