In October, 2023, the Reardan Memorial Library received a grant from the Washington State Library, Office of the Secretary of State, and funded under the provisions of the Library and Services Technology Act from the federal Institue of Museum and Library Services. This grant allowed the library to add some of our scrapbook pictures to the Washington Rural Heritage collection. Part of the mission of this collection is to “enable small and rural libraries to create digital collections of unique items that highlight institutional holdings and tell the stories of their communities.”
