Alele Museum and Public Library

Log Number: LS-01-13-0061-13

Alele Museum, Public Library & National Archives, the designated State Library Administrative Agency for the Marshall Islands, will continue its technology training and book lending services for seniors by engaging youths from a local high school and a partner organization as computer trainers. Alele will supplement this digital literacy training with a twice-weekly mobile book lending service for seniors. Through this project, the community will benefit from intergenerational sharing opportunities while increasing digital literacy among the Marshall Islands’ aging population. Grant funds will also support the Information Literacy Consortium, which provides regional access to EBSCOHost databases.
