This and That at the Lester Public Library of Rome

From the May 15 Wisconsin Rapids Tribune.

The Lester Public Library of Rome is pleased to announce the awarding of a grant of $5,000 from the Mead Witter Foundation.The Library Grant Program was designed to provide help in areas where budgets have been tight. Each library receiving the grant completed an application and written plan for how the grant was to be used. This grant will enable the library to purchase several additional public use computers, a printer and several chairs for use at the public computers. The library has been fortunate to receive the grant once before.
