City Library Receives Check From State Board
The Ann Arbor Public Library received today a check for $1,022.65 from the State Board for Libraries, according to Miss Frances A. Hannum, librarian. This amount represents the final payment on a grant of $1,618.95 from the General Library fund.
The Ann Arbor Public Library receives this bonus because the local tax support is being maintained, but if the local tax support drops, the library would not be eligible for this additional assistance.
This grant is part of the State Aid to Public Library Fund set apart by the Legislature for the development of Michigan libraries. The 1944 special session appropriated $300,000 for the 1944-45 fiscal year which will help libraries hold the line under wartime conditions.
