Summary of Request

The Mendocino County Library regularly applies for grants in support of supplies and circulation materials, public programs, and capital improvement projects. The Library is the recipient of three grant awards including “Maximizing Learning Spaces or How to MacGyver Your Library” which will pay for the creation of a design to improve the interior arrangement of the Willits Library. Another grant, the “Census Equity Fund,” is for educational materials and presentations at Library branches to help achieve a complete count in the 2020 Census. The third grant is for “Whokulele? YOUkulele! Learn to play the Ukulele at the Ukiah Library,” will pay for training, presentations and materials.

 

The three grants total $20,752.
