The State Library has created an email listserv to allow digital equity stakeholders to share news, ask questions, and facilitate opportunities for collaboration.  If you would like to be part of these ongoing conversations, we encourage you to sign up for our e-mail listserv: https://listserv.nysed.gov/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=digitalequityny&A=1 .

The State Library will be convening a series of three roundtable discussions on Digital Equity in 2021 and 2022. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted inequities in the access and use of information and communication technologies. These disparities impact individuals within a broad range of areas including education, workforce development, and healthcare.  These roundtable conversations are intended to be an opportunity for digital equity practitioners across New York to connect and communicate with one another. Everyone is welcome to attend and listen.  

Register: Friday, December 17th, 2021 from 9:00 am to 10:00 am  

Register: Friday, February 18th, 2022 from 9:00 am to 10:00 am  

Register: Friday, April 15th, 2022 from 9:00 am to 10:00 am
