The development and modernization of Armenia’s community libraries continue through a range of programs initiated by the Internet Society Armenia Chapter PO.
As part of its efforts to transform libraries into Internet access centers and make them more accessible and attractive to visitors, the program provides libraries with computer equipment, Wi-Fi connectivity and Internet access. Alongside these technical upgrades, library staff receive training to effectively use new digital tools and library collection management systems in their day-to-day work.
The Internet access centers emerging through the modernization of regional libraries have the potential to become an important part of community digital life, bringing education, technology and community services together in one accessible space.
To date, the Internet Society Armenia Chapter’s programs have engaged approximately 65 libraries across six areas of Armenia: Ararat, Armavir, Kotayk, Lori and Syunik provinces, as well as Yerevan.
