The Institute of Museum and Library Services has awarded over $157 Million to State Libraries.
Some of my favorite quotes from the press release:
"Libraries will use federal funds to create and sustain a nation of learners."
"Libraries...connect people to knowledge and ideas and enhance their ability to learn throughout life, adapt to change readily, and evaluate information critically."
"{These}...funds help state library agencies make library resources and services, which can be prohibitively expensive to the individual, readily available to an entire community."
Can we please have a round of applause for our libraries?
