What happens when a major foundation president decides to speak out boldly during a crisis? How can philanthropy surge resources to protect nonprofit workers facing unprecedented job losses? In this season finale of the Fund the People Podcast, host Rusty Stahl sits down with John Palfrey, President of the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, to explore how courage becomes contagious in times of sector-wide attacks. You'll discover the real math behind foundation payout increases, learn why one foundation moved from 5% to 6% giving (adding $150 million over two years), and understand the strategic thinking behind multi-year general operating support.Palfrey shares the behind-the-scenes story of how MacArthur Foundation responded to federal cuts targeting nonprofits—from increasing their payout rate to joining solidarity campaigns that have gathered nearly 700 institutional signatures. He offers frank "real talk" about the trade-offs of long-term funding, explains why he believes in the constitutional "freedom to give," and discusses how foundations calculated that nonprofit grantees lost about 12% of their federal funding. This conversation reveals both the possibilities and limitations of philanthropic response during crisis.As attacks on nonprofits continue through 2025, this episode provides essential insights for anyone working in or with the social sector. Whether you're a nonprofit leader wondering how to navigate funding relationships, a foundation professional considering how to increase impact, or simply someone who believes in the power of organized giving, you'll gain practical knowledge about how major philanthropy is adapting to meet this unprecedented moment—and why taking summer breaks might be the most important advice of all.Funding for Real Change - fundingforrealchange.com (true cost initiative tools)Season 5, Episode 7: "The Great Double Standard" (Rusty's rant about foundation overhead policies)Season 4, Episode 10: “MacArthur Foundation Makes Changes to End Nonprofit Starvation Cycle – with Kenneth Jones, MacArthur Foundation” interview about MacArthur's indirect cost policy Season 7, Episode 17: “Meet the Moment: A Call to Action for Funders – with Shaady Salehi, Trust-Based Philanthropy Project”Season 7, Episode 1: “Do Funders Understand the Nonprofit Burnout Crisis? – with Elisha Smith Arrillaga, CEP” on the 2024 State of NonprofitsHR 9495 - "The Big, Bloated Bill" (link to Congress.gov full text)Center for Effective Philanthropy “State of Nonprofits 2025: What Funders Need to Know” John Palfrey's guest post on CEP blog “Courage in Unity: A Funder's Response to the ‘State of Nonprofits'” (June 3, 2025 response to the report)Council on Foundations public solidarity sign-on campaign - (694+ institutional signatures supporting philanthropy's freedom to give)"Meet the Moment" commitment - Trust-based philanthropy pledge (nearly 200 institutional signatures)The Courage Project - Coalition of nonprofits and foundations launched May 2025BioJohn Palfrey is President of the John D. and Catherine T.

The rise of generative artificial intelligence is a stress test for data governance and management. And an opportunity for data stewards to shine. When Neil Cooke became the Chief Data Officer at the Texas Department of Information Resources in 2022, generative artificial intelligence (GenA) was not on the horizon. The role was focused on data governance and collaborating with state agencies in overseeing the shared open data portal. It is tempting — and a little clickbaity — to say GenAI changed all that. But that would be factually incorrect. In fact, all the behind-the-scenes work on data management and governance has gone a long way toward preparing the state to meet the challenges — and take advantage of the opportunities — of AI.Cooke talked about data disciplines as a precursor to the effective use of artificial intelligence on our occasional series, Government A to Z, with TFIC co-host and Government Technology Staff Writer Ashley Silver along with two colleagues from Governing — Staff Writer Zina Hutton and Digital Editor Zoe Manzanetti. Show NotesHere are the top 3 takeaways from this episode: An Evolving Strategic Role: Chief Data Officers (CDOs) and data management officers play pivotal roles in navigating government challenges by overseeing data governance practices and promoting collaboration across agencies. Their responsibilities include breaking down data silos, ensuring data quality, and fostering a culture where data is valued and managed effectively. AI's Transformative Potential: Artificial Intelligence (AI) emerges as a transformative tool in addressing governmental challenges, offering opportunities for automation, enhanced decision-making, and predictive analytics. However, the effectiveness of AI models heavily relies on the quality and security of the data they're trained on, emphasizing the importance of robust data governance frameworks. Collaborative Approach: Collaboration between government entities, AI advisory councils, and technology experts is essential for responsible AI development and effective data governance. Initiatives such as data literacy programs and AI user groups facilitate knowledge sharing and best practices dissemination, fostering a collaborative environment for addressing governmental challenges.

Today we discuss the benefits of reversing degeneration into regeneration and how to do that. I've been impressed with Dr. Darcy Brunk, DC for something like 15 years. He has always been on the leading edge of healing with amazing natural approaches. After stem cell therapy dramatically healed him from a horrific career-ending auto accident, he was inspired to become an expert and share that miraculous therapy with patients. Having seen so many miraculous benefits from Infinity Matrix therapy, it has become a consuming passion for Doc Darcy. He now is a key leader of the national network of providers of Infiniti Matrix therapy.

On this edition of Parallax Views, Charles Henry, President of the Council on Library and Information Resources, joins us to discuss the importance of preserving cultural memory and history in the digital age. Massive amount of information, if not properly maintained in this new digital era, could be lost to the sands of time. This incredible loss of knowledge, like the burning of the Library of Alexandria, would be catastrophic.. Simply put, it would amount to a digital dark age. In this conversation we discuss this issue in-depth as well as how climate change and it's consequences pose an immense threat, even arguably the number one threat, to retaining human knowledge and cultural memory. We also touch upon issues such as film/cinema preservation, the disinformation/misinformation problem, the pros and cons of massive information proliferation in the digital age, the digital age's amplification of marginalized voices, the digital memory hole and the problem with the "once it's on the internet it'll be around forever" mentality, and much, much more!

In this episode, we discuss the LES Center's upcoming P-12 institute "The Civil Rights Movement and the Nine-Word Problem."

The recordings are from Laurel Falls Camp for Girls all the way to the 1960s.

Loyola University in New Orleans is working on educating its students – and its community– about the importance of media literacy. This includes knowing how to discern fact from fiction, news from opinion and how to identify fake news.  Laurie Phillips, associate dean of Information Resources & Systems at the Monroe Library Loyola University, who teaches a course, “Facts and Misinformation.” She gives us the details. Earlier this month, public safety leaders in Baton Rouge unveiled part of a new initiative to place surveillance cameras in high-crime areas. It's part of the SafeBR coalition– a broader effort to tackle crime in the capital city. Adam Knapp, President and CEO of the Baton Rouge Area Chamber (BRAC), tells us more . Also, Mississippi was one of the last states in the nation to adopt net metering rules, which make it easier for homeowners to invest in renewable energy. The state recently updated its rulebook with incentives for low and moderate-income residents. But as Danny McArthur of the Gulf States Newsroom reports, environmental justice advocates are still pushing for more. Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

For the first time ever, we have a guest co-host this week while Marlene wears her fancy sneakers around ILTACon seeking answers to our Crystal Ball question. Katie Brown, Associate Dean for Information Resources at Charleston School of Law is on a mission to increase the teaching of practical technology skills to law students. In her view, law professors "are required to educate people so that they can go out into the practice and successfully do that. And so beyond just, rule 1.1 with legal technology and having that competency, for us as law schools, I think we have an ethical obligation to be teaching legal technology." This approach needs to be embedded into the Law School's culture, because it costs money, time, and effort to do correctly. In upcoming research collected with University of Connecticut Law's Jessica de Perio Wittman, Brown and de Perio Wittman calculated that on average, law students have less than 4 classes during their entire time in law school that have some aspect of teaching them the technology skills in that topic. Brown wants to see that number rise. While in Denver at the AALL Conference, Katie not only answered our Crystal Ball question, she also persuaded Abby Dos Santos, Reference Librarian at Caplin & Drysdale, to sit down with her and have a conversation about the pipeline of technology teaching from law school to law firms. We cover both of those answers and then Katie turns the mic on Greg to ask what law students need to understand about court dockets before landing in law firms.

We can't be as responsive as quickly as we would like to be. And so that presents our challenges." [4:16] "I gotta think that somebody else has done something to modernize their systems. And so we want to look outward and talk to other other states- find out what's out there and what's available. And then identify the best solution for the DMV and move that." [7:13] "And we now have a mobile app In Texas for vehicle registration and renewal, which is something that internally we just wouldn't have been able to get there without partnering with the Department of Information Resources, their vendor Deloitte, and entering into this agreement and joining into this application." [10:32] "Our tax assessor collector partners had their annual conference, and our executive director mentioned that we were looking to replace RTS; it was a standing ovation from all our tax assessor collectors because they know the system and how painful it is." [17:28] "For example, if that vehicle gets stolen, you can flip it to where that license plate will, flash that this vehicle is stolen. I think that's just really great. And technologies like that- it's really exciting that the innovations and things coming out around transforming the physical to the digital" [20:54] "And so having that conversation of 'it's not a no, it's just a not right now' that was key in helping convince leadership and our business partners... And then, focusing those dollars on what would help us get further down the road to our end goal." [22:06] "It's really tough to fill my positions, especially my developer positions. I think having a 30 year old system doesn't help. I've got older technology and it's just not exciting ,and it's not something that's going to help somebody build their career and learn and grow. So that's tough." [25:18] "But, the magic wand I would say is something that I've talked to a lot with other CIOs is that we've got tol be realistic about salaries across the board. And the reality is that we are just not competitive at all. I think it's going to take some collaboration amongst all the agencies and with DIR to communicate that and try to get these salary schedules up" [29:29] "When it's a problem that everybody has, I think it's a problem for everybody to solve."    ---------------------- Want to dive deeper?

Matt interviews Charles Henry, the President of the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR), a non-profit organization that works with libraries, cultural institutions, and higher learning communities to improve research, teaching, and learning environments through the digitization and preservation of cultural heritage.Charles believes preserving cultural heritage connects us with humanity's collective experience and knowledge, and gives us a sense of identity. However, cultural memory loss can easily occur and climate change poses a significant threat. In fact, it is believed that 98.8% of American archives are likely to encounter at least one climate risk factor by the year 2100. CLIR has been working for decades on the preservation and access to cultural heritage. Projects include theDigital Library of the Middle East, one of the world's largest online archives of Middle Eastern and North African artifacts, and theHBCU Library Alliance Partnership, which fosters awareness of and access to collections held by Historically Black Colleges and Universities.

Interdependence is the idea that the wellbeing of our world and for our physical and emotional selves depends on those around us, yet when we find ourselves up against a challenge bigger than ourselves, our sense of interdependence becomes stronger. When we move that scale even larger (i.e. a global climate crisis), interdependence becomes paramount. Climate change not only affects our everyday lives, but affects cultural history and cultural artifacts such as books and architectural styles, as well as more ephemeral practices like theater, song and language. How well we are able to face these challenges has to do with how we tell stories. How well we tell stories depends on what we choose to protect, preserve, and make prosper in our cultures. If you've used the Internet in the last 20 years, or 20 minutes, you know that there isn't a lack of information or stories online, but how much of our and others' cultural heritage exists digitally, how accessible is it, and who is able to contribute?These are questions that Charles Henry engages with in this episode.

Jim Cunningham spoke with Mattress Factory Senior Archivist Sarah Hallet and Digitization Archivist Sinéad Bligh.  Over the last two years, the Mattress Factory has worked to digitize the Greer Lankton Archive in a project funded through the Council on Library and Information Resources and in partnership with the University of Pittsburgh. The online finding aid is the culmination of this work and will make publicly accessible Lankton's artistic development, artwork and exhibitions, along with her relationships to her friends and contemporaries, including Nan Goldin, David Wojnarowicz and Peter Hujar. The Greer Lankton Archive is an assemblage of over 15,000 materials collected from the work of artist Greer Lankton, a significant and underrecognized artist in the radical art scene of New York City's East Village during the 1980s. Lankton's exhibitions and performances included those at PS1, Club 57, Pyramid Club, Franklyn Furnace, Civilian Warfare Gallery, Hal Bromm Gallery and the Whitney Biennial NYC. She also exhibited across the US and Europe, including in the UK, Austria and the Venice Biennale. This April, the Mattress Factory presents “It's All About Greer Lankton,” a FREE event series leading up to the launch of an online finding aid to celebrate the famed artist Greer Lankton. The series will culminate in Greer's Birthday Bash on April 21st - what would have been Greer's 64th birthday. This free community day will mark the official launch of the Greer Lankton Collection Finding Aid. Admission to the Museum is free all day, with events and programming taking place from 3-7 PM. They also spoke about the latest exhibits at the archive, the café and shop and new  coffee and restaurant additions to the cultural scene on the North Side.

Being on an Olympic team is a life-changing event. From what I've heard (You don't wanna see me on those Rings) But there's one thing even better. More gratifying… And that's coaching an Olympic team to victory. Seeing those under your charge go on to achieve unthinkable things. Break records. And change history. It's breathtaking. Not to mention hearing your name on MSNBC at 3:30am in the morning US time. To do that, you've got to commit. To practice. (Actually, to perfect practice.) And to putting a Rockstar in every spot on your team. Easier said than done. So, my job is to seek out those who have done it. To figure out how. And to make sure you know how to replicate their success. (And to avoid their occasional bellyflops.) I just had the chance to interview a business Olympian, who's built & led successful teams in both large companies and small. In multiple geographies. And numerous industries. Gian Fulgoni is a champion in the measurement of consumer behavior & the effectiveness of advertising and promotion programs in TV, print, and online. He co-founded comScore in 1999 & helped grow it to become a global leader in cross-platform measurement. Previously, he led Information Resources, Inc (IRI) through a period of dramatic growth, from $2 million in annual revenue in to $500 million annually in 1998 and a market value of $1.4 Billion along the way. And he's still on the field. As Chairman of PetMeds, the publicly-held largest pet pharmacy. And Executive Chairman of VC-backed Varcode. Plus, Gian is a Venture Partner at 4490 Ventures. And he serves on the Board of Directors of Prophet, the brand consultancy. No wonder he's been twice named Illinois Entrepreneur of the Year. In this 20-minute conversation, Gian reveals how he put a Rockstar in every seat of his teams. And how he gets the most out of them.

25th May 2021 An online lecture by Richard Ovenden, Bodley's Librarian, University of Oxford, and author of Burning the Books: A History of the Deliberate Destruction of Knowledge (John Murray Press). Richard Ovenden's lecture will discuss the deliberate destruction of knowledge held in libraries and archives from ancient Alexandria to contemporary Sarajevo, from smashed Assyrian tablets in Iraq to the destroyed immigration documents of the United Kingdom's Windrush generation. He will examine both the motivations for these acts—political, religious, and cultural—and the broader themes that shape this history. He will also look at attempts to prevent and mitigate attacks on knowledge, exploring the efforts of librarians and archivists to preserve information, often risking their own lives in the process. The event will include a response by Helen Shenton, College Librarian and Archivist, Trinity College Dublin. About the speaker Richard Ovenden has been Bodley's Librarian (the senior Executive position of the Bodleian Libraries, University of Oxford) since 2014. Prior to that he held positions at Durham University Library, the House of Lords Library, the National Library of Scotland, and the University of Edinburgh. He moved to the Bodleian in 2003 as Keeper of Special Collections, becoming Deputy Librarian in 2011. He was educated at the University of Durham and University College London, and holds a Professorial Fellowship at Balliol College, Oxford. He is a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries, the Royal Society of Arts, and a Member of the American Philosophical Society. He was awarded the OBE in The Queen's Birthday Honours 2019. Richard serves as Treasurer of the Consortium of European Research Libraries, as President of the Digital Preservation Coalition, and as a member of the Board of the Council on Library and Information Resources (in Washington DC). He has written extensively on the history of the book, on the history of photography, and on current concerns in the library, archive and information worlds.

Across twelves events, a panel of world-leading experts has reflected on how societies deal with cultural trauma through reconstruction and commemoration, and on how the international community should respond to cultural loss. The series has been global in scope, pan-historical and multi-disciplinary in approach, and featured international scholars and practitioners of the highest calibre.

As Americans loudly hammer out partisan views on the world stage these days, colleges and universities have been drawn into the fray as campuses, with speakers and their mobile-enabled audiences, become venues for audio and video that has a propensity to go viral. What was once considered healthy student debate can easily become a political inferno with a viral international following. Factions have formed, aligning people into either diversity or free speech advocates. This bifurcation is something John Palfrey sees as mistaken. In his new book, Safe Spaces, Brave Spaces published by MIT Press, Palfrey says diversity and free speech share much more than not and argues both are imperative for a modern education and the promise of educating our youth in the American ideal. The former Henry N. Ess III Professor of Law and Vice Dean for Library and Information Resources at Harvard Law School offers clear examples of where the Supreme Court has ruled in favor of both diversity and free expression and he breaks down the trajectory of the past few decades that led to the fanning of these flames by provocateurs and by the emergence of a highly-interconnected world of viral platforms like Snapchat, Twitter and Facebook.

Mach 24, 2009. When an organization is planning to develop or revise the automation of information processing, a typical first step is to analyze the underlying structure of its business. The 'entity/relationship' (or simply 'data') model is a good vehicle for doing this. What has been discovered over the years is that there are a number of structures that are universal and applicable to all kinds of organizations, both private and public. There are four fundamental categories: People and Organizations, Geography, Physical Resources and Activities and Events. Overlaying all of these are the topics of Accounting and Information Resources. This webcast will also relate this model to the Library of Congress Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR). Speaker Biography: David Hay is manager of data strategy and architecture with Capgemini Financial Services USA. In the information industry for longer than he would care to admit, for the last 20 years he has produced data models for companies in various industries, such as clinical pharmaceutical research, oil production and processing, and banking, as well as for various government agencies. He is the author of several books, including his most recent, Data Model Patterns: A Metadata Map. For more information, visit https://www.loc.gov/today/cyberlc/feature_wdesc.php?rec=4580
