This panel presentation will include an overview of the Sustainable California Libraries grant and two grant recipients stories about their efforts to bring tailored programming to their diverse communities.
Glendale Library, Arts & Culture proposed The Earth Month & Beyond program to offer programs in Armenian, Spanish, and English. These programs include a volunteer-run repair clinic, clothing repair workshops, carbon conversation presentations, an Earth Day fair, and a guided nature hike.
Kim Yerton Memorial Library, part of Humboldt County Library, proposed the Creating a Community Focal Point in the Hoopa Valley program to serve the underserved community on the Hoopa Valley Reservation by offering a Library of Things, classes, and book groups.
These projects are supported in whole or in part by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act, administered in California by the State Librarian.
