[Libs-Or] Digital Skills Minigrants from ALA/Google

[Arlene Weible]

ALA's Public Policy & Advocacy Office announced our newest Virtual Learning and Enhancement grant in collaboration with Google's Ready to Code initiative! This grant is meant to support library staff at an exceptionally challenging time by giving them the tools they need to take on virtual teaching and programming. With the help of professional development training with Five Star technologies as well as Google's Applied Digital Skills curriculum and funding, libraries will be better equipped to support their communities as they always have.
