Ely Shoshone Tribe

The Ely Shoshone Tribe of Nevada will use its grant to expand the tribal library’s collections and purchase library automation software to catalog and organize materials, providing easy access for the public. With a recent donation of computer equipment, the library will be able to hire a trainer under this grant to offer community members in-depth instruction on word processing, spreadsheet, and graphics software programs that will help improve school and work performance. Project staff will establish partnerships with local libraries to maximize resource sharing in this rural area.
