Senator Patrick M. Gallivan (R-C-I, Elma) is announcing grants to 26 public libraries in Erie, Wyoming, Livingston and Monroe counties that are located in the 59th State Senate District. The libraries will share a total of $72,500.
“Public libraries provide valuable resources within the communities they serve,” Senator Gallivan said. “Neighborhood libraries not only promote literacy, they provide residents of all ages with resources and internet access to continue their education, advance their career, conduct research and become life-long learners. These grants will help ensure libraries have the resources they need to better connect and serve their communities.”
