Ninilchik Village

The Basic Grant funds will be used to create a rural community of learners by providing support for existing library operations as well as maintaining core library services. Library staff will expand and improve the collection and services for people of all ages and with all types of education, workforce development, and digital literacy skills in a desire to prepare people for full participation in the local and global society. Staff will continue to market locally to inform the public of our library and information services. The grant funds will also be used to develop public and private partnerships with community based organizations and agencies. Also, authors will visit the library to inspire readers and writers of all ages. Finally, the Library will send a representative to the Alaska Library Association Conference in 2019.
