Our team works to ensure that regardless of their circumstances, all people have equal access to information, education and cultural resources.
Description
LIBRARIES WITHOUT BORDERS is a nonprofit committed to expanding access to information and bridging the digital divide. We partner with libraries, schools, small businesses, community-based organizations and civic institutions to transform laundromats, lobbies, parks, recreational centers, and other public spaces into pop-up learning centers. Through this approach, we literally meet people where they are-whether that’s a laundromat in the Bronx or a refugee camp in Jordan-to amplify the impact of our partners, expand community access to relevant and reliable resources, and equip individuals with opportunities to improve their lives.
