Though it isn’t known what Kearney Public Library will receive, it anticipates more computers, scanners, software and training, according to Library Director Matthew Williams.
“What we asked for were some replacement computers and new computers, but we don’t know if that is what we’ll receive at this time,” Williams said.
The three-year project is designed to expand broadband capacity, upgrade public computing resources in libraries, and advance access to employment, learning, health information, and E-Government services.
In addition to the $2,416,403 federal grant, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will provide $1,251,786 in matching funds, including a grant and technical assistance to support the project. The total project budget is $3,668,189.
