Abstract
Digital disparities have been a concern among different communities across the U.S. The lack of an integrated approach to evaluate digital connectivity limits our understanding of where and what the differences are to address digital equity. This research utilized broadband internet open data and other government datasets to evaluate the status of digital connectivity across the U.S. where K-12 schools and public libraries are located. This work is funded by the University of North Texas Libraries' Dean's Innovation Grant (DIG) 2021-2022 award. The research data and products are open for others to use and replicate.
