State Senator Mark Pody (Lebanon) and Representatives Clark Boyd (Lebanon), have announced today that $4,802 of federal technology grants will be going to libraries in their area. The grants will enable the libraries to purchase technology related items requested in their respective proposals for the grant.
According to State Senator Pody, “Our libraries serve as a great resource for communities and give people access to technology they might not have. It is important for our libraries to stay up-to-date with technology, and these grants will assist libraries in this charge. I appreciate the libraries’ directors and staff for their work to secure these grants.”
Of the $4,802 in federal grants in their districts, $2,910 to the Cannon County Library System.
Representative Boyd commented, “Our local libraries are an important resource for the current and future leaders of our community. “I am pleased that these investments will allow our facilities to upgrade their technology so they can provide innovative tools that better serve our citizens.”
