Congratulations to the Hunter Public Library in receiving National Grant for Small and Rural Libraries. The competitive award comes with a $10,000 grant that will help the library become more accessible to people with disabilities and the elderly. “We are honored to be awarded this grant from the ALA’s Libraries Transforming Communities: Accessible Small and Rural Communities Initiative. This grant will allow our library to serve our elderly residents and residents with disabilities better and will ensure that everyone in our community feels welcome and comfortable in our library.”
As part of the grant, the Hunter Public Library personnel will take online courses in order to host discussions with residents about accessibility to the library. It is important to make the library a place were all residents have easy access to the services, events and materials the library provides. If you are interested in being part of the discussion, please contact Regina Johnson at directorhunterlibrary@gmail.com or visit hunterlib.org for more information.
