Tennessee State Library and Archives

The Tennessee State Library and Archives will use funds under the CARES Act to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus; to expand digital network access, purchase internet accessible devices, and provide technical support services.  They will continue to support the goals of their Five-Year Plan for FY 2018-2022. In Tennessee, specific goals address all Tennessee residents: 1) Having the reading skills, information resources, and library services needed to succeed in school, at work, and in their daily lives; 2) Being able to locate and access library and information resources that are relevant to their lives through the provision of traditional reading materials, non-print media, online and downloadable resources, and electronic networks; and 3) 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.
