Clarivate Continues Work with EveryLibrary to Support and Nurture Libraries in the US

Today Clarivate announces our renewed support for EveryLibrary, a non-partisan advocacy organization dedicated to safeguarding and supporting libraries in the U.S. The renewed partnership, which includes increased funding available to EveryLibrary, will run until 2026.

Bar Veinstein, President, Academia & Government, Clarivate said: “Clarivate has partnered with EveryLibrary since 2023 and continues to commit to advance EveryLibrary’s mission to safeguard and support libraries in the U.S.”

He adds: “Libraries transform the world through their critical role in promoting literacy, education, equal access to information and community engagement. This collaboration enables us to leverage the strength of both our organizations to aid libraries through dedicated resources and advocacy.”

John Chrastka, Executive Director at EveryLibrary, said: “Clarivate’s support has allowed us to move several important projects forward, including our new report focusing on academic institutional accreditation standards and the future of academic libraries. We have also been able to convene discussions about higher education policy at national conferences and in professional journals. Their commitment helps us help library leaders anticipate change and engage for the future.”

This ongoing partnership will help EveryLibrary to deliver on its real-world impact, supporting the future of libraries and the right to read, including promoting pro-library model legislation with state library associations, engaging public support for libraries, supporting local library funding campaigns, and providing pro bono consulting for libraries.

The new report from EveryLibrary, Institutional Accreditation and the Academic Library: A Strategy for Engagement and Representation, discusses when and how academic library stakeholders can participate in standards reviews, provide input, or influence future revisions.
