14:48:03 From Janet McKenney to Holly Williams(Direct Message): Hope you are doing OK. You and your family have been in my thoughts!! 14:49:09 From Janet McKenney to Everyone: We will get some admin screen sharing done for the folks from Drucker, so excuse any of that chatter. Nice to see everyone! 14:50:03 From Holly Williams to Janet McKenney(Direct Message): Thanks so much, Janet. It's been a rollercoaster ride this past week. We're taking baby steps, though, and now that he's home, the serious work begins. 14:50:11 From Holly Williams to Janet McKenney(Direct Message): Thank you so much for your kind words! 14:50:48 From Janet McKenney to Holly Williams(Direct Message): You are a trooper. 14:59:05 From Janet McKenney to Everyone: We will take questions in the chat today at the end but please put questions in at anytime and I will keep track. 15:02:16 From Barb Rehmeyer to Everyone: Anyone interested in a gallon of PureGreen24 disinfectant? I have an unopened One Gallon Refill Jug (128 oz) Paid $49.99 and will sell for half price. Or make an offer! :-) 15:27:40 From Cindy Appleby to Everyone: How often are salary, who's hiring, etc. updated? 15:28:07 From Lex Dennis to Everyone: We typically update that quarterly 15:28:36 From Mamie Ney to Everyone: Is the content entirely provided locally or do you provide some content? Do you bring in content from other cohorts that you deem worthy to share? 15:28:40 From Rick Wartzman to Everyone: That career data, FYI, comes from Burning Glass. 15:29:23 From Lex Dennis to Everyone: Mamie - we will answer that question during the Q&A 15:29:25 From Andrea Kazilionis to Everyone: Would each library in Maine be able to have their own unique front page, or would we be sharing a front page as a state? 15:29:36 From Mamie Ney to Everyone: TY 15:30:29 From Lex Dennis to Everyone: We can also tackle your question in the Q&A, Andrea. 15:30:37 From Andrea Kazilionis to Everyone: Great, thank you! 15:33:27 From Patty King to Everyone: What is the approximate ratio of free to cost based resources in the collection? 15:34:34 From Patty King to Everyone: *fee based, that should say :-). 15:35:11 From Tom Corbett to Everyone: Can our many local and statewide learning resources already offered through libraries (Udemy, Linked-In Learning, Google Partners, Pronunciator, LearningExpress, Kanopy, etc.) into this platform? 15:35:15 From Lex Dennis to Everyone: I don’t know the ratio exactly, but the vast majority are free to the end user. The resources that carry a cost to users are local ones (community college courses, local coding courses, etc.) 15:35:39 From Lex Dennis to Everyone: We can tackle that in the Q&A, Tom. 15:35:47 From James Ritter - MSL to Everyone: @Patty -- Drucker can weigh in, but some of the "free" will actually be paid-for resources behind the scenes... either paid for by MSL, businesses, or private foundations... The goal is to have the most minimal amount of barriers to learning as possible. 15:35:48 From Mamie Ney to Everyone: Go Irish! 15:36:11 From Janet McKenney to Mamie Ney(Direct Message): Haha! 15:36:34 From Mamie Ney to Janet McKenney(Direct Message): I've been waiting to get that in there! 15:37:02 From Janet McKenney to Mamie Ney(Direct Message): I could feel it coming... 15:37:18 From Mamie Ney to Janet McKenney(Direct Message): Janet....this is so exciting. I see so many possibilities for this!! 15:47:20 From Mamie Ney to Janet McKenney(Direct Message): Have to run. Hopefully recording will be available. If you're signing people up, add APL! 15:47:53 From Janet McKenney to Mamie Ney(Direct Message): Thanks. This summer we will be engaging with everyone. 15:49:11 From Bernie (she/her) to Everyone: how are results listed on the home pages etc? Most recently added? Most relevant? Will we be able to re-order the results? 15:49:48 From Marianne Thibodeau to Everyone: Are there typically lots of pop-up ads in the free content available via Bendable? 15:50:49 From Hannah Cyrus to Everyone: What are Bendable's privacy practices around patron data? Do you collect/retain personal info or track analytics? 15:50:55 From Sofia Birden to Everyone: Thank you, Kintae, it sounds wonderful! 15:51:24 From Rick Wartzman to Everyone: Great questions! We will answer all during the Q&A, coming up next! 15:52:33 From RPL Director to Everyone: How much is the fee each year? 15:55:50 From James Ritter - MSL to Everyone: @RPL -- not easy to answer, because it's nuanced. Platform fees are minimal -- will be absorbed by MSL. Content -- especially with the goal of offering free content, will cost funds -- approximate $200,000 a year... the nuance is that some of this new content might alleviate the need for content that we currently purchase. ...also, no costs to local libraries, unless they wish to procure certain types of content. We can answer more in the Q&A 15:57:07 From RPL Director to Everyone: So $ 800K is going to Bendable over a few years? 15:57:46 From James Ritter - MSL to Everyone: Lets discuss more in Q&A. 15:58:47 From Stefanie Claydon to Everyone: If a lot of the actions on this platform are user driven, are there moderators who are monitoring content that is being created and dispersed? 15:59:13 From Sofia Birden to Everyone: I like it, radical relevance! 15:59:34 From Lisa Shaw (she/her) to Everyone: +1 @Sofia :) 16:06:23 From Janet McKenney to Lex Dennis(Direct Message): We have about 9 questions to address. Looking at time... 16:08:00 From Lex Dennis to Janet McKenney(Direct Message): Rick and I were having the same chat back and forth 16:08:07 From Lex Dennis to Janet McKenney(Direct Message): Had to get Jenni one last question 16:08:27 From Janet McKenney to Lex Dennis(Direct Message): Perfect. It addresses one question! 16:09:52 From Janet McKenney to Everyone: David Lankes everyone...the community is the collection. 16:10:28 From Lisa Shaw (she/her) to Everyone: @Janet - I was just thinking that! :D Library as a knowledge platform rather than a pipe. 16:10:54 From Tom Corbett to Everyone: You are all awesome! Thank you for your presentations and participation. 16:13:08 From Kelli Burnham to Everyone: What kind of analytics will be available to see what is being used and how?

That's the whole next year! 16:21:31 From Andrea Kazilionis to Everyone: Thanks Janet - I'm curious how the input will be gathered - is that something that's been decided yet? Or is that something we'll discuss down the road a bit? 16:23:42 From Andrea Kazilionis to Everyone: Thank you for all the information :) 16:24:03 From davismemoriallibrary to Everyone: Thank you all!
