Abstract Library consortia are planning on how their funding, programs, and services may need to change with the societal tumult caused by the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic. Most consortia in North America are either state agencies or non-profit corporations which may have different approaches and options available for solving substantial budget shortfalls. Changes may need to take place in staffing, programs, and services. Some consortia may have financial portfolios which may help on filling-in budget holes. Other consortia have applied for, and received, funds from the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) to help with staffing. Many library consortia will not see a quick recovery but may have long-term consequences as their member libraries and parent organizations try to recover.

大流行对图书馆联盟及其可持续性的影响

摘要 图书馆联盟正在计划如何随着 2020 年 Covid-19 大流行引起的社会动荡改变他们的资金、项目和服务。北美的大多数财团要么是国家机构，要么是非营利公司，它们可能有不同的方法和选项来解决大量预算短缺问题。人员配备、计划和服务可能需要发生变化。一些财团可能有金融投资组合，这可能有助于填补预算漏洞。其他财团已经申请并收到了薪资保护计划 (PPP) 的资金，以帮助配备人员。许多图书馆联盟不会看到快速恢复，但随着其成员图书馆和上级组织试图恢复，可能会产生长期后果。
