Abstract
This brief is the culmination of the Institute for Public Administration’s work with the Delaware Manufacturing Extension Partnership. Prepared for the Delaware Division of Libraries (DDL), this brief begins by describing the current process to accessing social services in Delaware, the barriers for accessing services, and recommendations to streamline service provision. This work was completed through the lens of Delaware librarians, who serve as liaisons between the general public and the social services they seek. The brief is meant to
update partner organizations on the current work of Delaware Libraries and seek out partners’ engagement moving forward.
