<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Segoe UI Symbol",sans-serif;color:#1F3864">JerseyConnect helped bridge the digital divide by providing free technology services and network infrastructure to 80% of all public library
locations. The program is designed to be flexible and scalable, reducing redundancy. This positioned libraries to take advantage of new and emerging technologies while enjoying reliable core internet connectivity. Most JerseyConnect services were independent
of a direct connection to the network, and included web hosting with statistics, full-service email hosting and management, email spam and virus filtering, cloud storage, domain name hosting, Wi-Fi management, and consultation on technology projects.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Segoe UI Symbol",sans-serif;color:#1F3864">We fund 40% with LSTA. There are nearly 300 public libraries in NJ.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Does any state have a website development project that they fund with LSTA? We currently have a website development project, which provides hosting, WordPress templates, training and support for about 62 libraries in Oklahoma to have a website. We’re at a crossroads
with the project and would like to learn what other states are doing with similar projects.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
