The Warner Public Library recently received the Youth Engaged in Philanthropy grant from the Illinois Prairie Community Foundation.
Corey Campbell, Warner Library Youth Services Manager, indicates the grant will be used to purchase e-readers for youth patrons. The library will survey the community as to which titles they would like to see.
Campbell says the e-readers will allow the youth of the community a way to become familiar with new technology while also developing literacy skills. He says any kind of reading is beneficial.
Once the e-readers are ready they will be available for circulation similar to the Library of Things collection.
