This project will: 1) establish a large collection of print, audio-visual, digital and interactive resources readily available to any Lenoir County resident, 2) partner with Lenoir Community College to provide continuing education to at-risk residents of Lenoir County who have been otherwise unserved, and 3) make a concerted effort to reach out to those in need of these increased opportunities for literacy improvement.
