Recognizing public access computing programs in China and Denmark.
Two libraries received the annual Access to Learning Award, which recognizes international libraries for the innovative ways in which they are connecting disadvantaged patrons with free, public access to computers and the Internet. The Aarhus Public Libraries in Denmark developed an impressive program to deliver multimedia library services to a growing refugee and immigrant community. In China, the Evergreen Rural Library Service Center is working with high schools to create computer labs and offer technology training in four provinces with high poverty and illiteracy rates.
