Two community technology centers in Dayton, Ohio have collaborated with the Dayton public library to provide a half-time librarian in both centers, who will serve as a technical support staff member in the community technology centers. The Library Services and Technology Act was passed in Congress and signed by the President on September 30, 1996. The last objective of LSTA funds is where community technology centers can play a significant role.
Local libraries apply for LSTA funds through their state library agency.
