About the Caifornia "Virtual Library Card" for the Palace Project...

“If you’re after a particular title by #ToniMorrison or Margaret#Atwood, you might find that it’s available in #Georgia, and effectively banned next door in #Florida. A new initiative from the #DigitalPublicLibrary of America (#DPLA), launched in concert with the #PalaceProject, hopes to toss a ladder to people living in places where access is restricted.”
