E-rate is a federal discount program available to accredited public libraries that pays up to 90% of broadband costs, but we at TSLAC know the process to complete an application like this can be challenging. TSLAC is continuing its support of libraries this year in applying for E-Rate. The project, called Libraries Connecting Texas (LCT), provides FREE, one-on-one support from a professional consulting firm, E-Rate Central, to guide participating libraries successfully through the 2026 E-Rate Funding Year.
If you’re new and interested in participating this year or are already part of LCT and want to hear about this upcoming year, please join us for an informational webinar on Thursday, October 9 at 10:30 a.m. Central. We’re kicking off the new E-rate Year!
Check out these testimonial videos from two grateful LCT librarians:

Join us for the kick-off webinar and contact TSLAC’s Library Digital Opportunity (LDO) Team at LDO@tsl.texas.gov if you would like to participate in our free consulting program this year.
