Library gets new look

Thanks to the generosity of the McCasland Foundation, Nash Library has a new interior look. The old study tables and chairs were replaced with 26 new tables and 104 new chairs. New computer tables and chairs allowed us to add seven additional workstation spaces.

As mentioned, funding for the new furniture came from a $50,000 grant from the McCasland Foundation in Duncan, OK. The grant also funds the purchase of a book analysis software system that will allow us to evaluate the library's collection of books. This system will compare the library's books against a recommended core collection of books. Once this comparison is made, we will purchase many of the recommended titles that are not currently owned by the library.
