CALIFA "Pushing the Limits" grant

The Alice Baker Library is one of two libraries in Wisconsin and one of 75 rural libraries in the United States to receive a CALIFA "Pushing the Limits" grant of $2,500 to be used in 2013-2014 for adult programming in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). Probably will include arts as well. This program "extends the building blocks of science literacy to two new audiences: rural librarians and adults in the communities they serve." The East Troy Lions Public Library also received a grant. Pushing the Limits is a reading, viewing and discussion program for adults in communities served by rural libraries, made possible by a grant from the National Science Foundation.
