Rowan Public Library has the opportunity to apply for an Arts Culture & Humanities grant from the 2023 Margaret C. Woodson Foundation Grant Program to support the ongoing collaborative project, "Salisbury Post Morgue Preservation Project."

The project will increase usability and accessibility of these valuable historical materials to the public, including researchers, historians, and genealogists.
Grant request amount is $10,000.
Recommendation:
Approve the RPL to apply to 2023 Margaret C. Woodson Foundation Grant Program to support the SPMPP.
