2008 WiFi Connectivity Grants Announcement
Nebraska’s public libraries are invited to apply for WiFi Connectivity Grants, funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, to put WiFi into as many as 75 public libraries without such access. A WiFi router and a choice of portable computers will be provided to successful applicants to enable them to provide wireless Internet access in the library itself to their customers. Applications are due no later than 2 September 2008. Michael Sauers, Technology Innovation Librarian, is heading up this project as part of the Nebraska Library Commission’s effort to make 2008, “the year of WiFi in Nebraska.”
For questions contact Michael Sauers at 800-307-2665 or 402-471-3106, or Richard Miller at 800-307-2665 or 402-471-3175.
