Welcome to Prairienet, a site for community connections through technology tools! We hope this website becomes a valuable resource about information technology and community development.
The Community Technology Forum is a blog where we invite you to let us know your experiences with technology in community!
The Engagement Projects tab will link you to information about a partial but growing list of community-university engagement projects throughout Illinois, nationally, and Internationally.
The Special Topics tab will link you to reports reviewing ways information and communication technologies can and are being used to support community development efforts.
This site is provided as one means for faculty, staff and students at the Graduate School of Library and Information Science and other units at the University of Illinois to interact with long-term and new community partners. Please contact Sharon Irish or Martin Wolske at cii@illinois.edu with questions.
