Ute Mountain Ute Tribe

The White Mesa Library, serving the small Ute Mountain Tribe community of White Mesa, plans to greatly improve the physical environment of the library with new furnishings that will create a welcoming space that allows for group activities as well as privacy. Twelve new computers will bring the computer lab up to date, and a new multimedia collection and increased Native American and Utah history resources will enhance the variety of offerings to community members. The librarian will implement a library automation project so that all materials will be accessible electronically. Presentation equipment for school projects will enable students to enhance their reports, science fair projects, and other assignments. The library will also partner with a local college library to sponsor a one-day library skills workshop for all librarians in the county.
