There are a lot of tiny libraries in Vermont, some of them serve communities so small they don’t have a “capital campaigns” option for doing needed improvements. Many aren’t accessible. Vermont just announced awards of over $15mil in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) money much of which will help our smallest libraries get more accessible.

In one case, they’re expanding a library so that it can have a bathroom. Not just a public bathroom, a bathroom.
