Our
state senator, Bill Montford, has been recognized by the Florida Library
Association with the legislative award for 2014 for his outstanding support for
public libraries.
This year aid to public libraries was
increased by $5 million dollars.
Franklin County received an increase
of over 17, 600 dollars for our local libraries.
For Gulf County it meant an
additional 10,600 dollars for its library system.
Senator Montford, who was once a high
school Principal and Superintendent of Schools said he knows firsthand that
families and students rely on the public library for a place to learn, study
and grow.
He added that rural areas benefit
especially from access to a library and he is proud to support their continued
efforts.
