Passwords: How to Make the Best of a Bad Situation
by Abby Clobridge
Yahoo recently announced that details about nearly 500 million of its user accounts had been stolen. Similar breach announcements involving tens or hundreds of millions of user accounts are a near-daily occurrence, and there are no signs that things are getting any better. The breaches that you hear about in the news are just the tip of the iceberg. Oftentimes, companies are hacked and never realize it, let alone take action to notify their users. These sorts of cyberattacks aren't going away, so it's up to us to take every possible precaution to protect our own accounts and data.

But where can library staffers go to do their own learning? They need designated spaces too, which is why the Open Library Foundation is so important. This new organization encourages everyone in the library and library services communities to share their ideas for an open source future.
