Title
Lapeer County Information Depot
Description
Lapeer County used to be crisscrossed with railroad tracks connecting its cities, villages and bergs. Many of these depots remain as buildings but, no longer maintain their function. No more do they serve the role as gathering spots where residents could catch the local news and make connections to the "outside" world.
Lapeer County Information Depot is providing a new "track" throughout the County. It is reinventing the "railroad" and is creating a "cyber-rail" that is available to ride free of charge. The locomotive is an Internet server. It is housed in the Internet Training Center of the Lapeer District Library.[map] Its engineers are webmasters from Lapeer County Technology Coalition. The train's crew is Lapeer County Technology Coalition volunteers. Its cargo is provided by local government units, libraries, nonprofit and service organizations throughout the county. And its passengers are you! It is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for "all-aboard" access.
The Coalition's mission is to support coordination of technology developments within the County. Lapeer County Information Depot is a visible manifestation of this mission. Based on the organization areas of representation in the Multi-Purpose Collaborative Body, Lapeer County Information Depot actively seeks and encourages participation by entities throughout the County. It recognizes that these entities have unique and valuable information that is oftentimes difficult for the public to access. Coalition members are willing to work with them to identify and provide types of information most needed by the public.
