Giveaways at Rhinelander District Library, other area organizations, open the door to online access from home
An effort is underway to bridge the digital divide in the Northwoods, laptop by laptop. Last Friday, Jan. 30, the Rhinelander District Library welcomed 50 pre-registered Oneida County residents to a distribution event giving away free laptops. As RDL IT coordinator Ashley Greenhaw checked in the recipients, John Potters, a contracted project manager for Human-I-T, passed out each boxed, refurbished machine.
