GOSHEN – Ten libraries in Orange County will receive a total of $185,000 in state funding to assist them with today’s changing mission.
Senator James Skoufis (D, Cornwall) announced the funding while at the Goshen Library on Tuesday.
“The role of libraries has transformed and grown over the years to catch up with technology. Now there are audio books, Ancestry.com – genealogical and other online services for access through the library. And at the top of the list here at libraries is programming, especially youth programming,” he said.
The new funding will go to libraries in Goshen, Florida, Warwick, Greenville, Port Jervis, Middletown and Cornwall.
