NaperLaunch, a co-working business start-up at Naperville Public Library, was an early endorser of Gale Small Business Builder. This program, which was recently launched at the 2017 ALA Conference and Exhibition, is an online planning tool for those who have prospects of entrepreneurship or assistance in operating an existing business.

One of the functions of Gale Small Business Builders is to help small business owners and entrepreneurs through their public libraries. The program allowed NaperLaunch to build from the beginning. In less than two years, they built up a full entrepreneurial ecosystem at their library.
