TechSoup Products June 30 DEADLINE!!!

TechSoup, a technology software and hardware initiative to “bring technology to nonprofits” (and partially funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation) offers very inexpensive software (and some hardware) to nonprofit entities (which now include public libraries). But you need to act now if you are interested in acquiring products from a list of TechSoup “partners” (companies making very inexpensive technology products available through this program), the reason being that the fiscal year for this program runs from July 1 of one year to June 30 of the following year. If you place an order with one of the partner companies by June 30, you will become eligible again July 1 to order from that same partner. This could really benefit your library if you are trying to get multiple copies of some software, for example. See the following for a list of these partner companies and for a list of other partners that are not affected by this deadline.
