The LLN currently connects 25 school districts, two career and technology centers, two private/charter schools and one library system to the LIU. The network allows its members to receive high-speed internet connectivity at a significant cost savings. It was designed to provide members with the network bandwidth and educational tools needed to modernize instruction delivered in the classroom.
