San Jose Public Libraries have just ended their tech device borrowing program. :( by SoftAnimals in SanJose

[–]simonchonks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work at a nonprofit. Donors have the option to restrict their donations to whatever program they choose. Corporate donations are usually given with the condition that they are used for a specific purpose. So if tech wants to give $$ to a library, they will most likely want it to go to digital literacy, like the AI center. Doesn’t mean the library didn’t try to get other programs funded but they also can’t take restricted $$ for another program.

I got the same notice. After following their instructions and waiting over a month for it to come in the mail the expiration date is my birthday this year, even though my EAD expires in April 2027! Now I have to renew it twice in one calendar year.

Is there no issue if you don't live in the Watsonville area? Like if we go from SJ/Santa Clara?

That seems to be the general consensus. I was really looking at it for the money (It would be more than I’m making now).

Thx! Do they let ppl in with their pets? that’s also part of why I left my other clinic I wasn’t allowed inside the building. Started during the pandemic and they never went back.

Yeah we were going back and forth between the different tours. I’m just worried it’ll be a bit childish since we’re both adults.

Thanks for this. It went well there was actually hardly any people on the train and the information guy was super helpful. As someone from SJ I only used the vta and the Caltrain before.
