You're invited to a new series of events called Libraries as Digital Navigators: Library Listening & Learning Circles!
These collaborative and welcoming events are a key part of our Human-Centered Design process to ensure the Cook County Digital Navigator Network is built with libraries. They will directly inform how the Network and upcoming funding opportunities are designed and implemented.

Who Should Attend
We welcome staff at any level from all suburban Cook County public libraries, and no digital expertise is required. We want to learn from library staff about the real challenges, barriers, and assets in your communities so we can best support your work helping residents access devices, reliable internet, and build essential digital skills.
