New Programs are made possible by the Institute of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act as administered by the Missouri State Library, a division of the Office of the Secretary of State. In the past few years, the library has won several large grants totaling over $45,000. These funds were used for collection development, automation and new computers, Summer Reading Programs, and Racing to Read Grant and STEM Grant. In addition to grants, we enjoy the ongoing support of the Community. Community outreach to area children is a primary goal for the library as it improves literacy in the county.
