Sent on behalf of ALA

Over a nine-month period, 12 public libraries will be selected to receive a resource package and hands-on support to strengthen their online health literacy offerings. Participating libraries will use the toolkit to host at least three adult health literacy programs in their communities and will play a key role in shaping the future of this initiative by sharing feedback with project evaluators.

Applications close on January 7, 2026: <https://www.ala.org/tools/programming/digitalpathways> https://www.ala.org/tools/programming/digitalpathways

12 public libraries will receive:

  *   Professional development resources, including a practitioner's guide, onboarding webinar and four professional development webinars.
  *   $8,000 stipend to cover costs associated with implementing at least three online health literacy programs from the programming guide. Eligible expenses may include hiring a facilitator, buying additional technology or purchasing materials recommended in the practitioner's guide.
  *   Access to a community of practice for participating library staff to ask questions, share expertise, offer advice and engage in peer sharing and learning.
