NCompass Live: Pretty Sweet Tech: Upcoming Changes to Nebraska Libraries on the Web Service

Learn about ‘Upcoming Changes to the Nebraska Libraries on the Web Service’ on next week’s NCompass Live webinar, on Wednesday, August 27 at 10am CT.

Special monthly episodes of NCompass Live! Join the NLC’s Technology Innovation Librarian, Amanda Sweet, as she guides us through the world of library-related Pretty Sweet Tech.

Due to software and budgetary issues, the Nebraska Library Commission can no longer offer free WordPress web hosting. We apologize for any inconvenience. This service has been around for a long time and it’s unfortunate that we were not able to maintain the service.

To make the transition easier for libraries, we are offering free basic website hosting through the NLC, and reduced rate web hosting through LibChalk. The current service will be supported through September 30, 2026 to give you time to budget and decide on next steps.

Attend this session to learn more details about how the free hosting works, and explore hosting options through LibChalk.

Upcoming NCompass Live shows:

  • Sept. 3 – E-rate 101: Just the Basics for 2026
  • Sept. 10 – NLC Grants for 2026
  • Sept. 24 – Pretty Sweet Tech
