New ALA webinars to help libraries understand and analyze the Digital Equity Act

 

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The American Library Association (ALA) released the second in a series of resources to guide libraries in all contexts to apply for more than a billion dollars in federal funding through the Digital Equity Act (DEA) for digital inclusion and equity, especially in historically underserved communities.

 

Release of ALA’s guide, What Your Library Needs to Know: Seeking State Digital Equity Capacity Grant Funding, coincides with the recent Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for the grants, launched at the Prince George’s County Memorial Library System in Maryland. In the coming year, states with approved digital equity plans will begin implementing them over five years through state capacity grants awarded according to a formula set by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), the federal agency responsible for administering Digital Equity Act funds.
