Director of Libraries Susan Flannery recently made an appearance on the new CCTV program Cambridge Broadband Matters to discuss the important role the Library has played in providing Internet access to Cambridge residents. "It was 21 years ago almost to the day, that the Cambridge Public Library was the first public library in the world to offer high-speed graphical access to the Internet, and since that day we've never looked back."

Watch the episode below:

Cambridge Broadband Matters is a new series, produced by Anne Schweiger and Cambridge Community Television, which explores the relationship among people, public institutions, non-profit organizations, businesses, and broadband in Cambridge. This series serves as an educational and community engagement companion to broadband planning and action already underway in Cambridge, including through the work of the City of Cambridge Broadband Task Force and the efforts of local elected officials.
