Description

As the agency reported it.

The library district will open a new branch library at the family partnership center in the heart of the underserved northside neighborhood, where IT ran a hotspot distribution program during the pandemic. The branch will have a particular focus on early literacy as an important developmental step for at-risk children, and IT will provide free WI-FI access and digital literacy classes, contributing to the community's economic and educational vitality. The project will offer a more permanent solution to the area's digital divide and support individuals who are still struggling to recover from the impact of the covid-19 pandemic.
