Please join us on Monday, December 9, to learn about grant opportunities for Minnesota libraries through the federal Digital Equity Act (DEA).
Under this act, every state receives substantial funding to promote digital inclusion efforts supporting individuals in one or more of the following areas:
- Obtaining home internet access
- Acquiring internet-enabled devices
- Enhancing digital skills
As established leaders in this field, libraries are uniquely positioned to develop meaningful programs and services using these funds.
Register for the Zoom webinar at 1 p.m. on December 9, 2024.
In this webinar, DEA program staff from the Minnesota Office of Broadband Development will provide essential information about how Minnesota’s libraries can receive a DEA grant and improve digital equity in their community.
