(The County has accepted a large grant)....It is from the California State Library.
The $1 million grant will fund the start-up and maintenance costs of the Link Plus System for all public libraries in the county through 2024. Link Plus is a union of catalogues of shared holdings between about 70 libraries in the western-Pacific region, allowing cardholders to borrow from any of them. The funds will also go towards developing and implementing a student access card program at select schools in underserved areas, such as Niland, Salton City and Westmorland. It will give students access to digital resources and in-library services.
