NEW: ALA salutes Dr Carla Hayden for her exceptional service to the nation as the Librarian of Congress. We are deeply disappointed in Dr Hayden's abrupt & unjust dismissal last night, an insult to the scope & breadth of her work.

Supreme Court to review 5th Circuit ruling that upends Universal Service Fund
5th Circuit ruling threatens $8 billion program that expands broadband access.
Pay attention to this: the supreme court is going to review the Universal Service Fund (i.e., E-Rate!). E-Rate's a good thing, & saves a lot of libraries and schools a TON of money on networking, internet access, etc. More here - arstechnica.com/tech-policy/... #erate #universalservicefund
