But for 141 million Americans, it’s not. And it's not by choice."This has been an issue even before COVID,” said Brena Smith, who manages a library system outside of Denver.Since so many of us have been stuck home because of the coronavirus, internet has gone from a nice accessory to a close necessity as so many parts of our lives have moved almost exclusively online.
