Riley Foundation Grant Recipients

 




Meridian-Lauderdale County Library Collection

In 1999, The Riley Foundation provided a $150,000 grant which enabled the purchase of 10,000 new non-fiction books.  According to library director Steve McCartney, this grant has given the library a much wider selection - from cookbooks to religious books.

In 2001, The Riley Foundation provided a $100,000 grant for the purchase of audio books.  This grant is helping to build an extensive collection of books on cassette and CD.  Titles are being purchased for adults and juveniles in fiction as well as non-fiction.
