Heard from a colleague who is a current member of #IMLS 's advisory board that the entire board has been "released" (fired) and that all IMLS staff have received #reductioninforce notices. Their last day of work will be in early May. I don't know what that means for IMLS-funded positions and projects at the state level, but it doesn't look good. You know you're governed by an #idiocracy when its leaders zero-out #libraries and #museums.

We are collecting things that can be done in the lights of #IMLS and #NEH being shut down. In short: Focus on what you CAN do, not on what you CAN'T do.
