Special monthly episodes of NCompass Live! Join the NLC’s Technology Innovation Librarian, Amanda Sweet, as she guides us through the world of library-related Pretty Sweet Tech.

Digital Navigators have grown increasingly popular over the years. The National Digital Inclusion Alliance calls these Navigators "trusted guides who assist community members with ongoing, individualized support for accessing affordable and appropriate connectivity, devices, and digital skills".

Some states have built out entire statewide platforms and training platforms for Digital Navigators. Nebraska has several smaller initiatives, and some missing gaps. This session will discuss Digital Navigation in Nebraska, including:

Quick overview of Nebraska’s Digital Equity Plan
Current digital skill-related programs
Digital Navigation resources, nationwide
Ideas for what your library can do

It’s time to work together to tackle that massive digital skill problem in all of our communities!
