10/16/2019 - The OWL program is in the midst of restarting OWL videoconferencing. Staff at University of Alaska Video Services have begun testing endpoints. We expect to announce the resumption of endpoint to endpoint and endpoint to CILC providers shortly.

About Online With Libraries

The Alaska Online With Libraries (OWL) Program is funded by the State of Alaska for the following purposes:
- Provide rural Alaskans with high speed internet access that urban Alaskans have long been using for education, employment, and enjoyment.
- Bring the world to Alaska by connecting people from all areas of the state with other Alaskans and Americans through videoconferencing.
- Reducing costs for agencies and organizations by substituting video meetings and visits for travel.
- Provide information technology training to Alaskans that will enhance their future education and employment prospects.
