Ardkeen Online is part of the AGORA project which aims to bring the general public online. Ardkeen Online makes it easy for people with no technical expertise to create simple Internet web pages, to upload images and to establish their own foothold online. Ardkeen is run by the local public library so that anyone in the community can sign up, get their own web space and receive training and support, free of charge.

Regardless of whether you would like to go online for business reasons, to promote a club or society, to provide a voluntary or social service, or just to share thoughts and pictures with friends and family across the world, Ardkeen Online is there to make it easy for you.

The Process

Ardkeen is online - the project services can be accessed from home, from work, from the public library or from anywhere else with an Internet connection. The material you create can be viewed by anyone, anywhere, who can access the Internet.

The Goal

Ardkeen Online enables members of the public, voluntary bodies, schools and other end-users to establish an online presence and to interact with one another online, in a 'virtual community' which mirrors the physical one in which they live. It provides software, hardware, training and support to enable this to occur, using the traditionally open, inclusive and supportive environment of the public library.
