ICMA Grant

The Ortonville Public Library and the City of Ortonville/EDA applied for an ICMA grant to have a Media Center in the lower level of the Library. We were informed on Friday that we did not get this grant. There were 515 applications for the grant. Ortonville did make the final cut to 15, but did not make the cut to the 9 awarded projects. We are filing for a LSTA grant through the State of MN Library Services for the same project. This grant is due on Friday, March 13, 2009. We have not given up getting a media center, just having to look for additional grants. We will post updates as we receive them.
