Patron access is measured on two of the site's pages. Between the both the library and the Freenet, over 3250 requests for community information are received daily. Each year, there is a workshop for prospective information providers. Those interested in having a web site are either trained to create them or are partnered with a graduate student from Florida State University who will create the page for them. These pages are hosted on or linked to from the Freenet.
Volunteers do most work of system maintenance and data entry.
They desire a search engine that will maximize the patron's ability to retrieve relevant information. In addition, the staff expects to gain technical expertise in designing and running public access web hardware and software components. These enhancements will allow the Freenet to become more visible in the public eye. This is especially essential due to the position the Freenet has in the community. Other ISPs provide web hosting services to community organizations as well.
