So in North Carolina, the state federal partnership between the
IMLS and State Library of North Carolina represents hundreds of
activities that benefit our residents every day.
This can be from residents being able to go pick up materials
after hours at a location.
It can mean that a library is coming to a place closer to
them, or it can mean that they're learning skills like
computer skills or small business skills.
Our libraries are providing access to more technology than
ever before.
We hear time and time again that without the investment of these
funds that libraries wouldn't be able to start newer programs and
initiatives.
We are proud to be the stewards of these funds and grateful for
the support from IMLS to be able to provide these opportunities
to our libraries across the state.
