FYI -- from the ALA Office of Information Technology Policy Advisory Board:

Good morning everyone,
Today is Digital Learning Day and FCC Chairman Wheeler and Commissioner Rosenworel will be giving remarks (at approximately 11:00 and 2:30 respectively). If you are interested the link to the webcast is below.
From our meeting with the FCC yesterday, we have every reason to feel more hopeful this morning about what will be included in the Chairman’s speech. We do plan to issue a statement sometime later today. In the meantime if you would like to help get the word out about libraries and their role in digital leaning (for K12 students but also for the broader community) that would be great. The hash tag for the event today is #DLDay.
Thanks for your help,
Marijke
