Dr. Carolyn E. Poole, Director of Library Services at Chipola Junior College and FACRL Executive Board member, published an article entitled "Libraries LINCC Lifelong Learners to Community Colleges" in the Spring 2002 issue of Florida Libraries, the official journal of the Florida Library Association.

The purpose of the article was to illustrate how LINCC resources offered by community college libraries are serving lifelong learning needs both on campus and off campus. Citing many examples, Poole described ways in which students, faculty, staff, administrators, community members, state citizens, regional residents, and even global users are benefited by the LINCC system. Cooperative sharing of print/electronic information, customized instruction for information literacy, and virtual reference services are a few of the contributions derived from LINCC libraries. Dr. Poole expects the new state priority of developing one common Florida library information portal to enhance lifelong learning.
