This program provides information technology assistance and training to libraries. After surmounting the initial hurdle of obtaining current information technology, many libraries are ill-equipped to use or support these resources. This is especially true of small and rural libraries. This project provides help with the federal E-Rate applications and funds, supports use of third party funding, and assists libraries with technical questions related to hardware and software by phone or on-site visits. Funds are used primarily to pay salary and travel for Washington State Library staff as they consult with libraries statewide on relevant technology issues and oversee day-to-day implementation of IT related projects.
