Description

As the agency reported it.

In recent years, the library has participated in several of long beach's public safety initiatives, including the city of long beach's violence prevention plan (safe long beach). To advance lifelong learning, the library established a network of family learning centers aimed at providing academic assistance through tutoring and access to technology. The centers also include a digital/creative lab called the studio, a community workspace where people meet and collaborate to use technology that helps develop intellectual curiosity and inspire academic success. The library's information center for people with disabilities provides assistive hardware and software designed for residents with physical, visual, hearing, and developmental disabilities. Additionally, the library's special connect services includes books, toys, sensory bins and other resources that bridge the GAP between the library and the families of children with special needs.
