Anne Arundel County Library provides access to many resources and services that can help you get, and stay, connected!
Closing the Digital Divide with the ACP
The Library is working to connect eligible county residents with the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). The ACP is an FCC benefit program that helps ensure that households can afford the broadband they need for work, school, healthcare and more.
The benefit provides a discount of up to $30 per month toward internet service for eligible households. Eligible households can also receive a one-time discount of up to $100 to purchase a laptop, desktop computer, or tablet from participating providers if they contribute more than $10 and less than $50 toward the purchase price.
The ACP is limited to one monthly service discount and one device discount per household. Read about who is eligible here.
Contact your local branch for help with signing up for the ACP!
