Welcome! Prairienet is a member-supported community network for East-Central Illinois.
Prairienet is offered as a community service by the

Prairienet's mission is to:

- empower individuals by providing access to networked information and by teaching the skills necessary to access and use this information,
- facilitate information and resource sharing in support of community development efforts, and
- promote equity in access to computer resources for everyone in the community.
