   ##  Digital Literacy and Discovery 

   [Solution guide](/taxonomy/term/2991)    | 7 February 2023  

 This free playbook looks at some of the challenges that public libraries face today when it comes to engaging their patrons digitally, and how leveraging a discovery service can improve this effort.



  

 

 ### Leveraging a discovery service can help patrons build their digital literacy skills.

Public libraries have been given a huge task to educate their patrons and teach the foundations of digital literacy. Patrons are navigating a complex digital world and need tools and resources to match the depth in which they experience the digital.

- How does the library provide digital resources that are equally accessible to digital natives and digital immigrants?
- How can the needs of fluent English speakers as well as those who struggle with it both be accommodated?
- How can the library satisfy both those trained in library search and those who are daunted by the process?

This free playbook covers how a discovery service can help address these challenges.
