EFFINGHAM — The Effingham Public Library has been selected as one of 100 libraries nationally to participate in Round 3 of Libraries Transforming Communities: Focus on Small and Rural Libraries, an American Library Association initiative in collaboration with the Association for Rural and Small Libraries that helps library workers better serve their communities.

The competitive award comes with a $3,000 grant that will help the library bring homeschooling families in and around the Effingham community together to brainstorm and identify ways the library can become a valuable resource for homeschoolers.
