Our Mission

The Partnership for a Nation of Learners (PNL) encourages museums, libraries and public broadcasters to address community needs by working together. We empower museums, libraries and public broadcasters to be leaders in their local communities, and build the organizational capacity of these institutions by offering workshops, web-based materials, videoconferences and competitive grants.

Mary Chute, Acting Director of IMLS, says "Joining forces leverages the assets, the creativity and the expertise of public broadcasters, libraries and museums and makes it possible for them to serve communities in powerful ways."
