Description
Digital Navigator programs can help expand libraries' capacity to help your patrons access and use technology. Now is an especially opportune time to start or refresh a Digital Navigator program at your library.

In this webinar, you will learn: • The basics of the Digital Navigator model - what it is, how it works, and how it has evolved • How libraries and their partners are using Digital Navigators to support patrons' technology access and literacy • How the federal Digital Equity Act unlocks funding and support that may impact Digital Navigator opportunities Dr. Audrey Barbakoff ~ Biography Audrey founded Co/Lab Capacity LLC because she believes that the most meaningful futures emerge from community collaboration.
