This grant supports design, development, launch, promotion, and management of a Web service that provides public broadcasters and others with news, other information, and tools to respond to the current global H1N1 flu pandemic. The service collects and curates content created by public broadcasting’s station-based and independent producers, and aggregates information from federal, state, and local government agencies and other reputable sources. The service also makes the collected content available for easy digital distribution to public broadcasters, their partners, and other sites under noncommercial terms of use.
