2011/2012 Washington Rural Heritage Grants Awarded
From the desk of Evan Robb
Congratulations to the latest group of Washington libraries who will be awarded LSTA grants through the Washington Rural Heritage initiative:
- Asotin County Library.
- Connell Branch, Mid-Columbia Libraries.
- Ellensburg Public Library.
- Everson Public Library, Whatcom County Library System.
- Odessa Public Library.
- Omak Library, North Central Regional Library.
- Roslyn Public Library.
These organizations will be spending the next year digitizing historically significant materials from their own holdings, the holdings of partnering heritage institutions, and in some cases, privately held collections. For more details on each project, click here.
As of this writing, our 2010 group of WRH awardees are putting the finishing touches on their grant projects. Newly digitized items are steadily being added to the Washington Rural Heritage digital repository; more information will be available as these new collections go live.
Funds for Washington Rural Heritage were made available by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services. For more information, contact Evan Robb, Project Manager, (360) 704-5228.
