INSPIRE databases update
Governor Pence has asked for the money allocated for INSPIRE be removed from the budget of the state library. That means our students would no longer have access to this authoritative research tool. If you would like information about how to contact the governor or our legislative representatives to voice your concern, talk to me or see the Indiana General Assembly website: https://iga.in.gov/.
