Webinar on Tuesday, 7/30/2019
1:00 PM - 2:00 PM (Central)
Cost: FREE - Registration Required, Space Limited

Offering a hotspot lending program at your library offers endless opportunities for your patrons, especially those that lack broadband connectivity at home.

​This free webinar will offer public library staff tools and resources for how and why to start a hotspot lending program. Participants will hear from two public library staff members who will share insights about their libraries’ processes, policies, challenges, and more.

This webinar is presented as part of the Public Library Association's (PLA) DigitalLead: Rural Libraries Creating New Possibilities project. PLA and Microsoft Corp. are helping rural populations reap the benefits of broadband internet connectivity.

Now through August 30, PLA is accepting applications from public libraries in select rural counties so they can establish mobile hotspot lending programs and expand digital skills training programs and patron access to computers.

Visit the DigitalLead site to review the criteria and determine if your library is eligible.
