Barnsdall Receives ARPA Targeted Grant

The Barnsdall Public Library is excited to announce that we have received news that we have been awarded an ARPA Targeted Grant to install new security cameras inside and in the parking lot of the library. This grant was made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services and the Oklahoma Department of Libraries. We are fortunate that these institutions recognize the need to support not only large libraries that serve a metropolitan area but also small libraries in rural areas. They provide the Barnsdall Library with grant opportunities to purchase items that are greatly needed but because of budget restraints aren’t always possible.

Security Cameras Are Now Installed

The security cameras that were purchased with funds from an ARPA Targeted Grant have now been installed. These cameras provide security not only in the library but also in the parking lot. This grant was made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services and the Oklahoma Department of Libraries.
