“Most Tennesseans simply do not live in a community that has a college or technical school
so it is difficult for them to attend traditional classes," said Putnam County Library Director
Diane Duncan. “But most communities do have a public library, which makes the partnership
between our libraries and the Regents Campus Collaborative of RODP, Continuing Education,
and Workforce Development a natural fit." |
| Now you can get the college education you want without interrupting the life you have thanks to an innovative partnership
between Tennessee’s Board of Regents Online Degree Programs (RODP) - Campus Collaborative and the state’s public library
system. This strategic coordination of all TBR’s campuses to maximize resources and to reduce duplication of services brings
the quality education from the Tennessee Board of Regents’ 6 Universities, 13 community colleges and 27 technology centers to
each of Tennessee’s nearly 300 public libraries. ” Duncan said the “community classroom” the public library provides is now a
personal classroom to many Putnam County residents, more than 18,500 of whom visit the library each month. “We are basically
supplying the facility and the equipment to go back and finish your degree, or to pursue a degree for the first time,” she said. |
