Seniors On-Line is an exemplary project that the Collier County Public Library offers for its senior patrons. This program is funded by a Library Services and Technology Act grant that was awarded to the library in September of 2000. The Friends of the Library of Collier County, Inc. and the Collier County Public Library matched the grant funds in order to meet the objectives for this program. The focus for Seniors On-Line is to address the special informational needs of older adults by bringing technological resources to all seniors requesting specialized computer training.
