**Fulton County Library Hosts Fourth "Connect the Dots" Event, Provides Free Laptops and Digital Literacy Training**

Atlanta, GA – The Fulton County Library recently held its fourth "Connect the Dots" event, an initiative aimed at empowering adults through improved digital literacy. The program, organized in partnership with Commissioner Dana Barrett, InspiredEDU, and Comcast, provided participants with a free laptop for their household. The only requirement? Attending a complimentary digital literacy class.

The goal of the event was to equip attendees with essential computer skills and access to technology. This effort is part of the library's broader mission to support community education and resource availability. Both the laptop distribution and literacy training were offered entirely free to the public.

This ongoing partnership highlights a commitment to bridging the digital divide and ensuring that more individuals have the tools and knowledge needed in today’s digital world.
