Inclusive Gigabit Libraries is an interactive forum that examines how libraries can play a leading role in building next-generation Internet applications and services designed to operate on ultra-fast broadband networks that several communities are building. The forum will feature case studies tailored to libraries to showcase how next-generation networks can meet the current challenges faced by libraries. The aim of the forum is to promote the exchange of ideas among leaders with different types of expertise. Multiple perspectives are needed for developing innovations to demonstrate the potential of high-speed broadband in areas such as community and economic development, education, health care, government service delivery, and civic engagement.
