More than 400 social service kiosks will be installed at libraries across the state of Georgia, according to a WSB-TV 2 report.

Each kiosk will allow Georgians free access to update their social services benefits including Medicaid and SNAP at various public libraries across the state. The kiosks are the product of a partnership between the Georgia Department of Human Services and the Georgia Public Library Service.

"We are excited to offer these self-service kiosks to Georgians, allowing them more flexibility to manage their benefits. With weekend hours and internet access in rural parts of the state, public libraries offer our customers additional access points so they can complete a renewal or manage their cases easily," Georgia Department of Human Services Commissioner Candice Broce told the news outlet.
