The U.S. Virgin islands public library system will use funds to support the goals of their five-year plan for FY 2023-2027, which reflect the purposes and priorities of the library services and technology act (LSTA). In the U.S. Virgin islands, specific goals include: 1) promote literate U.S. Virgin islands - develop library services, programs, collections, and partnerships that promote learning, literacy, and community connection for residents of all ages, including underserved populations; enhance the knowledge and skills of U.S. Virgin islands residents, and ensure cultural heritage resources and programming are made widely available; 2) provide information access - including connectivity, technology infrastructure, and E-content; and 3) strengthen institutional capacity - including workforce development, library assessment, and facilities planning and disaster preparedness.
