IdeaEncore: Create your branded online resource library

Thank you for helping nonprofit resources reach organizations all over the world!  We are thrilled that nonprofit professionals by the thousands are hungry to find and adapt resources.   We are proud that more and more people want to share what they have created - many for free, some to create earned income.    We are happy that innovative organizations are finding their IdeaEncore powered online resource libraries save their staff time and money while better serving their members, constituents and other stakeholders. Because of you, 2011 has been a wonderful year for the IdeaEncore community.

The fast/easy way to your online resource library

If your New Year's resolutions include a more robust online resource library - you are only a few hours away.  And it can be embedded in your website with your own branding. Subscribing to an IdeaEncore powered online resource library (such as the Montana Nonprofit Association library below) is an easy way to add value to your website and share just the resources you select with a broad audience.        You can add any of the more than 4,500 resources already available on IdeaEncore to your branded library with a single click. Even if you already have a resource library, it's easy to upload your materials to IdeaEncore and it's even easier to update your library over time. You can even put your IdeaEncore powered library directly on your web page.  It is as easy as adding a video - just paste in the  simple iFrame code that we provide. Instead of spending valuable and scarce time and money creating a library from scratch, use IdeaEncore's already available resources and technology platform. Groups that have added IdeaEncore libraries as a resource for their members include management support groups, state associations, volunteer centers, national and regional membership groups, consulting groups, family and community foundations - groups seeking to provide easy access to the best resources to save their members and constituents time and money. Check out these examples of IdeaEncore powered libraries: Montana Nonprofit Association's Resource Library is embedded right in their website. Dwight Stuart Youth Foundation just added a link on the left side navigation of their websiteto their IdeaEncore hosted Resource Library.  Capaciteria merged their extensive collection and their library is now powered by IdeaEncore's platform.  Want more information about becoming an IdeaEncore partner library?
