Libraries are catalysts for community growth and change, and Amigos vendor partner PolicyMap offers a powerful way to support that mission. With easy-to-use online mapping tools and access to authoritative data, PolicyMap helps libraries provide patrons with insights into the demographics, housing, workforce characteristics, health, and quality of life in their communities.
Through this platform, public libraries can empower small business owners, students, researchers, grant writers, and community advocates to make informed decisions and drive local action. From identifying areas of need to strengthening funding proposals, the data available through PolicyMap can help patrons turn insights into impact.
