Nashville Public Library (Library Services for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing)

Log Number: LG-250047-OLS-21

Nashville Public Library's Library Services for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (LSDHH) program will increase capacity for the existing, interactive LSDHH website by improving access to library resources for the deaf and hard of hearing communities in the United States. Because deaf children are graduating at a fourth grade reading level, are abused at a shocking rate, and are unemployed at disturbing rates, LSDHH's website will provide families and communities with information and resources to address relevant community needs like literacy and employment. The project will provide the platform for states to provide access and bring awareness to the resources available in their communities.
