The rapid adoption of the internet, the spread of the world wide web and continuing progress in IT and other areas of telecommunications mean that Digital Transition will be the compelling topic for communities in the 21st century for years to come. This book is written to help generate a national dialogue on local broadband infrastructure, or in many cases, the lack thereof. Written in plain language, this is an informative guide for local community leaders of all kinds, from elected public officials, to private business leaders, from city staff to neighborhood organizers, from chamber of commerce members to economic development board members. The ABCs of Community Broadband provides readers the key to understanding what is happening in this complex area, and what they can do about it, today.
