Sorry about the possible misinformation. While Royal Oak started using Google Apps for Education for free 6 years ago, it appears that libraries may not qualify anymore. I will research it further.

As a public library, you will qualify for the free Google Apps for Education. Don't use a reseller. We, Royal Oak Public Library, have been using it for 6 years. I think you are initially given 50 free accounts, but you can request more. When I requested more, I was given 2000 with an invitation to request more.

Many of you use Google Apps at your library. My question is this. Do you just use the Apps account through a personal email or have you purchased the suite for your library staff? Also, did you receive a discount from Google? I spoke with a reseller yesterday and he indicated that we could use Apps from a personal account legally but we may be eligible for the suite through Google. When I look on the Google site however, it just shows 501c(3) schools and universities as qualifying. The rest of us would be $5 per month or $50 per year per user. Any information would be appreciated.
