Help RAILS Complete 20 Site Visits by January 1

RAILS staff is looking to close out 2022 on a high note! RAILS staff have a goal to visit 20 libraries by the end of the year. We're particularly interested in visiting libraries that fall into the following criteria:

• Do not participate in Find More Illinois
• Do not participate in Axis360/eRead Illinois
• Do not participate in Explore More Ilinois
• Do not participate in a shared catalog
• Have not had a RAILS staff member visit in the past 2 years, including virtual
• Do not have a staff member on a RAILS board or a board subcommittee

Please note that you do not need to meet all or any criteria above to participate. Any library type (academic, public, school, or special) can request a visit. RAILS staff is happy to speak with directors, managers, or front-line staff about resources such as L2, continuing education, grants, support for e-books, or just hear more about what's happening at your library!
