Current Actions: This Notice proposes the renewal of the clearance

approaches to

meeting them are evolving at an unprecedented pace in all communities,
and to operate within this environment effectively for the benefit of
their users, libraries must be able to both strengthen existing
services and move quickly to adopt new and emerging technologies.
The goals for this program are to improve digital services to
support needs for education, workforce development, economic and
business development, health information, critical thinking skills, and
digital literacy skills; to improve educational programs related to
specific topics and content areas of interest to library patrons and
community-based users; and to enhance the preservation and
revitalization of Native American cultures and languages.
