How I heard about Network Democracy:

Robert D. Carlitz, Executive Director Information Renaissance

My experience in this area:

The Benton Foundation believes that communications in the public interest, including the effort to connect all Americans to basic communications systems, is essential to a strong democracy. Benton's mission is to realize the social benefits made possible by the public interest use of communications. Benton bridges the worlds of philanthropy, community practice, and public policy. It develops and provides effective information and communication tools and strategies to equip and engage individuals and organizations in the emerging digital communications environment.

What I hope to learn:

As the Telecommunications Act identifies a new role for schools and libraries in the delivery of universal service and access, I would like to learn what these institutions need to fulfill this new role.
