Program Information

The Digital Navigation Program at Loveland Public Library aligns with the vision and mission of creating a more digital equitable and inclusive community in Larimer County. During the 2023-24 service term, members will be placed with one of 7 library and library-partnered host-sites in Larimer County, including:

• Loveland Public Library (host) 
• Red Feather Lakes Community Library 
• Estes Valley Library
• Berthoud Community Library
• Wellington Library
• Front Range Community College - Harmony Campus Library

Libraries are community hubs that welcome individuals of all backgrounds and needs; providing digital inclusion service in libraries ensures AmeriCorps members will provide the widest reach of services possible. Additional partner sites will continue to be added throughout fall of 2023.

Digital Navigators will serve people who are members of historically marginalized communities, including people with disabilities, older adults, members of ethnic and racial minorities, people living at or below 150% of the federal poverty level, people with limited literacy and/or English language proficiency and people who reside primarily in rural areas.  In addition, AmeriCorps members will conduct outreach activities to raise awareness about digital inclusion and digital equity in their community and spread the word about the availability of this service in their community.
