Port Graham Village Council

The Port Graham Village Library provides services for patrons of all ages in this Alaskan community. For those without internet access at home, the library’s computers and free internet provide the means to search for jobs, file documents, pay bills, or conduct other business online. The project will pay for the library’s internet access, which is sometimes the only connection that individuals have to the world outside the village. To cultivate young readers, the library organizes a summer reading challenge for children up to age 12. A local donor provides lavishly illustrated educational books for the challenge, and the library will track participation through reading logs.
