dc.description Libraries have always been about the business of connecting communities of people with the information they want and need in order to learn, explore, create and build success. Computers and the Internet have been a growing part of fulfilling this mission over the past dozen years. Funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the American Library Association (ALA), the accompanying comprehensive Public Library Funding & Technology Access Study is part of a sustained effort to provide current information that describes access to computers and the Internet in U.S. public libraries. en_US
dc.description.abstract The study presents national and state data gathered through three integrated approaches: a national survey that collected information about public library Internet connectivity, use, services, funding and sustainability issues; a questionnaire sent to the Chief Officers of State Library Agencies; and focus groups and site visits held in four states: Delaware, Maryland, Nevada and Utah. en_US
