A Note on Resources about Jobs and the Economy: Assistance for the Library Community in Their Applications to the Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP)

Abstract

Libraries provide many services necessary for communities and their residents to recover from the current economic downturn. The recently passed American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) provides funds for community anchor institutions, such as libraries, to develop new services or to expand current services to assist their communities.

Description

The purpose of this note is to help librarians think about how they can demonstrate that library services,including robust broadband, are essential to the important work of economic recovery.
