The LISC Online Resource Library
The LISC Online Resource Library
(www.liscnet.org/resources), located on LISC's National web site, contains timely policy and funding
announcements, in-depth information resources and distance learning
opportunities for community development practitioners. Through it, we
disseminate LISC’s and others’ lessons learned, and facilitate exchange among
community development experts and practitioners nationwide. The Resource Library was originally launched in April 1999. A
more interactive, redesigned version was launched in April 2002. The library continues to offer a
growing collection of in-depth papers, templates, tools and guides on a variety
of community development issues, but the sections have been reorganized to
better meet user needs.
