- Abstract
- The Three Rivers Free-Net (TRFN) is a free community-based computer network sponsored and run by the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. TRFN is designed to link the people of southwestern Pennsylvania to information and resources by bringing local nonprofit and government organizations onto the Web and by linking to selected global sites of interest to the local community. Outlines the history of the project, describes the TRFN infrastructure and provides a tour of the Web site. Discusses the reasons for the success of the TRFN project which include library affiliation, collaboration with other organizations, ongoing evaluation of the service's effectiveness, and training of volunteers. Plans for future additions include a community calendar, a search engine, and a geographic information system for the purpose of enhancing local content
