| Title: Photoshop Tips for Nonprofits and Libraries

    Are you looking to learn some Photoshop skills? TechSoup Global will be presenting a webinar called Adobe Creative Cloud: Favorite Photoshop Tips for Nonprofits and Libraries.

Here is a description from their website:

 

"New to Adobe or looking to increase your Photoshop skills for your nonprofit or library? Look no further! We'll spend an hour in this free webinar with one of TechSoup's in-house hacker-come-designers, Wes Holing, where he'll share some of his favorite tips and tricks while using Adobe Photoshop in the cloud. We'll be demonstrating with Adobe Creative Cloud, but many of the features and tips will be relevant if you're using desktop-installed Adobe too."

If your library or organization does not currently have Adobe Creative Cloud, Techsoup Global is also offering Adobe Creative Cloud at a discounted price at http://www.techsoup.org/products/--G-49388--?cg=sp [2].

 

Library State Aid drops Back

The State Aid to Libraries Grant Program increasaed to 27 million dollars in the year ending September 30, 2015. The legislature is about to vote on the final budget on Friday for October 1, 2015- September 30, 2016, dropping the funding back to last year's $22 million.

This large cut will impact libraries and the services they support, like adult literacy. It is really a done deal, but is not too early to start making a case for next year.

Libraries that support literacy programs often depend on State Aid to supplement local funding. 

Share your stories on our blog about how libraries support adult basic education, adult literacy, getting a GED and volunteers that tutor adults in basic reading and speaking skills.

Tell everyone how your library helps make a difference in educating their communities.
