Update on "Rename the IPL" Contest

Over the past two weeks, we have received several hundred suggested names for the forthcoming merger between the Internet Public Library (IPL) and the Librarians' Internet Index (LII).

We were originally going to announce the new name on Monday, May 18, but due to the overwhelming number of responses, we need some more time to review all of the suggestions and determine the winner.

Please check back with us shortly!
