On Friday, March 14th, President Trump signed an executive order that calls for defunding and potentially eliminating the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). IMLS is the federal agency responsible for distributing congressionally approved funds to state libraries, museums, and archive programs.
Since then, many patrons have expressed concern about what this order might mean for the Whipple Free Library. Please click here for more information.
On Wednesday, April 2, the National Endowment for the Humanities Acting Chair Michael McDonald notified all humanities councils that their awarded grants were cancelled in their entirety, effective immediately. Here in New Hampshire, the loss of these grants means the loss of half of New Hampshire Humanities' (NHH) annual budget. For more specifics on how these cuts impact NHH, see the public statement they issued on April 3.
As many of you know, NHH has been a generous partner of the Whipple Free Library for years. Please click here for more information on how this will impact us here at the WFL.
