Lynda method, which was sold here few months ago, is going to stop working on may 24th.  
I think that library is migrating to LinkedIn learning.  
So find a library and and register.  
New York Public Library is very easy. Just register with a new York address and you get a number to use for 30 days.

Today I’ve created an account by the old method.  
Is it going to stop working on May 24th?

Most likely.  
This is the email I got from them.

Dear Cairns Libraries member,

Cairns Libraries,with the support of State Library of Queensland, is upgrading from [Lynda.com](http://Lynda.com) to LinkedIn Learning for Library. From **4am May 25, 2021** , we will be unable to provide access to [Lynda.com](http://Lynda.com) for a significant period. We are working with the vendor to restore access as soon as possible, and at this point we are unable to advise when this will occur.

Due to technical constraints outside of our control, it was not possible to migrate your current [Lynda.com](http://Lynda.com) account to the new LinkedIn Learning for Library. This means that after **24 May 2021** your [Lynda.com](http://Lynda.com) account history will no longer be available. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

To preserve your learning history, we strongly recommend that you login to your [Lynda.com](http://Lynda.com) account **before 24 May 2021** and manually save your viewing history and certificates. You can save your viewing history by taking screenshots of the list of viewed courses and videos. You can save your certificates by clicking ‘View/Share’ and then saving them as PDFs.

If you maintain a current library membership you will be able to access LinkedIn Learning for Library once service is restored, but you will have to make a new LinkedIn Learning account.

You’ll just have to create a new account, using the same method which i posted today.
