Jennifer Wagner, our Library Director, diligently and regularly applies to the State of Utah for free grant money to improve our Library. She has received $60k this year for new content and equipment.
Despite its current size, the Santaquin Library boasts that 5k physical books are checked out every month, and 17k books and audiobooks are checked out through Libby, an online book renting software. In fact, hundreds of citizens go to Library activities every month.
The Library expands its collection by almost 80 books every month, but doesn’t have enough room to display them all! Jennifer says, “We would love a new building.”
