State Senator Li Arellano, Jr. announced that public schools within his district have been awarded over $34,000 in state-sponsored library grants. These annual grants are administered by the Illinois Secretary of State’s office and aim to support school libraries serving kindergarten through 12th grade.
“These grants are a great win for our students, educators, and communities,” stated Senator Arellano. “School libraries are more than just books, they’re learning hubs that promote literacy, access to technology, and academic achievement. I’m proud to see our local schools receiving these important funds to strengthen those resources.”
The grants are designated for purchasing materials such as books, e-books, audiobooks, periodicals, multilingual materials, updated technology, and educational programming.
