ALBANY — The Linn County Law Library has received a $5,000 small ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) grant, according to librarian Amber Boedigheimer.

The funds will be used to purchase USB thumb drives, a cell phone, a cell phone sanitizer and phone minute cards to support phone usage. 

“These items support the law library’s mission in encouraging the dissemination of information, enhancing communication services, and sharing of knowledge,” Boedigheimer said.

The project was made possibly in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services through the Library Services and Technology Act, administered by the State Library of Oregon.
