[Michlib-l] COVID-19 Support for Partner Libraries from Gale

[Deb Biggs]

At Gale, we are committed to meeting the needs of our customers 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:

   - *Resources*: Interdisciplinary, curriculum aligned resources to
   support online learning from pre-K through undergraduate
   - *Training*: Live and on-demand training materials to help partners
   optimize their existing resources
   - *Supporting Online Learning:* Professional development eBooks to help
   those transitioning to and strengthening virtual learning
   - *Expert Insights*: Authoritative Gale resources to support research
   on health-related topics and global issues

<https://cengage.pmail4.com/PoliteMail/default.aspx?page=6kQDJrm3fUy686trkw88rw&ref_id=7aU5ycNNLkGxr_UupoCzSQ>
has been established which will help you locate your Cengage representative
to enable the following resources:

   - *Free Access to Unlimited*: We will be providing free access to our
   entire catalog - all of our online learning platforms and eTexts - through
   Cengage Unlimited, through end of term, to any student in any class at any
   US college that has been impacted by COVID-19.
   - *Support Transition to Online*: We will complement that offering with
   services and resources to back up educators as they change the way they
   teach.
   - *Free Access to eBooks*: As part of our mission to help as many
   students as we can, we are also participating in free eBook access programs
   being offered by our partners VitalSource and RedShelf.


If there is anything else you can think of that would be helpful during
this time, please let me know and I can triage to your Gale representative
if you are with a public or K12 library as I work with academic libraries.
You can reach me through email, deb.tenbusch at cengage.com or call me at
248-699-8969.
