Good day! As you start making plans for your possible grant narrative for the Remote Work through Public Libraries Grants program, it might be helpful to better understand the landscape, needs, and resources for providing telework and remote work spaces. The Maine Community College System, through the Harold Alfond Center for the Advancement of Maine’s Workforce, has just what we need! And – you will love this! – it’s a LibGuides! https://maineccs.libguides.com/home If you would like more information about teleworking and remote working in Maine in general, check out this site! https://www.mccs.me.edu/workforce-training/remote-work-for-me/ If you would like to talk to someone directly from MCCS who is working with this and would like an email introduction, I am happy to provide that. Thank you all for your work on this. We know you have a lot on your plates already, so please let us know how we can help you. Respectfully, Lisa Lisa M.
