In case you missed it: The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction Bureau of Libraries has updated its file and document sharing processes as part of ongoing efforts to enhance cybersecurity. Announcement originally published in WI Libraries for Everyone post Shared File Access During Security Enhancements.

Two BadgerLink files are affected by these changes. Both are now Excel files saved within a DPI Microsoft SharePoint folder and will open directly in your web browser. These are live, view-only files meaning you will be viewing the most up-to-date version at all times. 

Bookmark the Excel files, or locate the links on the BadgerLink website in the same places they were previously found:

  • BadgerLink Resource Links and Logos file is on the For Library Staff page under Getting Started section.
  • Wisconsin Newspapers in BadgerLink Title List can be found in the description of each newspaper resource description and on the Training page

Contact us ASAP if you are unable to access files, documents, or web links, and if you have questions or comments. 

BadgerLink is made possible through a combination of both state funds appropriated through the biennial budget and Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) Grants to States funding from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).
