Oberacker: State library grants to help Edmeston, Richfield, Kinney in Hartwick
STAFF REPORT • Special to www.AllOTSEGO.com
Three Otsego County libraries are among the recipients of about $300,000 in public library construction grant funds from State Senate funds, according to state Sen. Peter Oberacker.
Oberacker, R-Schenevus, announced the awards Friday, Sept. 10.
“Our libraries are vital educational resources while also serving as community gathering places,” Oberacker said. “In many of the towns and villages that I represent, the local library hosts public meetings, delivers key services to residents young and old, and is the most recognizable building in the community. During the COVID-19 pandemic, our local library administrators and volunteers have faced new challenges and developed creative solutions to continue to safely serve the public.”
