📚 Lawrence Public Library Achieves State Aid Certification 🎉 The Lawrence Free Public Library has achieved a major milestone, being certified for the full State Aid Program requirements for the first time in 15 years. This certification allows the library to receive over $240,000 in state funding, which will be used to support essential services, technology, staffing, and other local library needs. This achievement not only strengthens the library’s future but also enhances access to over 59 million items available statewide through the shared library system.
The achievement was made possible through the combined efforts and dedication of Library Director Janelle Abreu, Mayor Brian A. De Peña, the Board of Trustees, Lawrence City Council, and the entire Library team. Congratulations to all who contributed to making this long-awaited milestone a reality!
We are excited to see the positive impact this will have on the community, and we look forward to seeing the library continue to thrive and grow!
