NC Division of Broadband Launches Tech Resource Finder to Help North Carolinians Access and Use the Internet

Governor Roy Cooper announced the launch of the state’s Tech Resource Finder, a new website that provides more than 1,100 resources that help North Carolinians use the internet, find public computers and Wi-Fi and access technical support and digital skills classes across the state. The N.C. Department of Information Technology’s Division of Broadband and Digital Equity collected information about all organizations in North Carolina offering these services to help people get online and identify gaps within communities for future initiatives. Tech Resource Finder users can search for local offerings by county, zip code or type of resource and can select a map view or table view. Each resource includes a description, address, website, contact information and directions. The division is also partnering with NC State University’s William & Ida Friday Institute for Educational Innovation to keep the Tech Resource Finder’s offerings up to date.
