and users. We recognize how hard everyone is working to rapidly respond to the
changing conditions around you—considering the health and safety of your
learners first, followed by a focus on continuity of curriculum—and we want to
help. To support librarians and educators as they navigate a rapid shift to
virtual learning and across many communities, as well as the physical closure
of public and K-12 libraries and academic campuses and their libraries, we have launched a COVID-19 resource center.
Everyone can immediately start using and sharing, for free: </span></p>
