Scheirer helps raise money for public library's Internet service

2016 Jun 3

Valerie Scheirer helped raise $866 to help the Callaway County Public Library upgrade its wireless Internet access and help close the "Digital Divide."

The communication senior seminar class spent spring semester exploring the "Digital Divide," a social issue that refers to the gap between individuals who have access to information and technology and those who do not.

After learning about the problem, the class put together a bingo fundraiser to raise money for the library, which provides Internet access free of charge.
