How we can help libraries — and how libraries can help us | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

We’ve been exploring if libraries could be part of building a better, fairer internet for us all.


Doteveryone believes we need neutral, non-commercial, community spaces for discovery, learning and existing in the digital age. We also believe libraries are a vital public institution, and provide vital social infrastructure, worth saving. (Libraries are public institutions that stand for a set of values. They are one of the few places left where you are a resident — or a person — before you are a consumer. We didn’t want to get nostalgic about libraries but when things are closed down and taken away, it is a lot harder to bring them back.)
