Program Guides and Toolkits

 

The BklynConnect Project engaged youth to research and implement a small-scale Wi-Fi network outside the four walls of the library as a response to Brownsville’s, and more broadly Brooklyn’s, diverse and changing digital equity, career development, and early literacy needs. Through BklynConnect, BPL collectively uncovered neighborhood broadband needs; identified the opportunities for new programming/services that support education, digital literacy, and inclusion; collaborated with local students as fellows; and created a playbook to share strategies to replicate this process in other neighborhoods.

Digital Access Needs Assessments from Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brownsville and East New York, completed in 2017, informed the project.
