Technology is a wonder. It can also be horror.  On October 1st,  I incorrectly published data.  I referred to the wrong dataset in my computer files.  The result was re-publishing the last edition, scoring and ranking every library the same for the 2008 edition as for the 2006 edition. 

I have now re-done things.  The revised data can be found on this website in the Ratings section and at the American Libraries web site

This edition, published October 2, 2008, was delayed a year by the late release of the 2005 federal data.  The next edition using, 2006 data. should be available in early 2009.
