Moran Public Library and Savonburg Public Library received dozens of new books as part of an $850,000 literacy project
The libraries each received nearly 200 new books valued at $1,500 for children from birth to age 5 as part of a regional literacy project funded by a grant from the U.S. Department of Education.
A consortium of 13 rural Kansas school districts received the grant, which funds efforts to improve literacy through innovative approaches. The grant also included funding to provide books to 15 libraries serving these districts.
