Tennessee State Library and Archives

The Tennessee State Library and Archives will use funds to support the goals of their Five-Year Plan for FY 2013-2017, which reflect the purposes and priorities of the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA). In Tennessee, specific goals address 1) Being able to locate and access library and information resources that are relevant to their lives through the provision of reading materials, non-print media, online and downloadable resources, and electronic networks; 2) All Tennessee residents having the reading skills, information resources, and library services needed to succeed in school, at work, and in their daily lives; and 3) All Tennessee residents benefiting from enhanced library and information services because library staff members have the knowledge, skills, and competencies needed to offer high-quality 21st century library services.
