Framework for Digitally Inclusive Communities: IMLS is seeking a cooperator to develop a framework that identifies the overarching principles as well as the elements or key characteristics of organizations and communities that foster digital inclusion. IMLS anticipates that future work, which may be supported by IMLS and/or other partners, will use the framework as a solid foundation to develop actionable benchmarks, evaluation tools, or performance measures that will guide funding and policy decisions that build the capacity of libraries and community-based organizations to support the development of digitally inclusive communities. The ultimate purpose of this work is to provide resource allocators and policy makers with the tools they need to build the capacity of public libraries and community-based organizations to meet the public's information needs.
