Criticism of LinkedIn Learning’s Policies Grows

August 10, 2019

LinkedIn Learning, which acquired Lynda.com in 2015, recently announced that all users of the platform’s online training programs will be required to create or log into a LinkedIn account to access the content. The new terms of service would also apply to LyndaLibrary users who access the platform through library subscriptions. Previously, subscribing libraries could offer patrons access to LyndaLibrary’s training videos on topics ranging from video production to project management using only a library card.
