00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:05.924
We're there to support our
libraries out in the field

2
00:00:05.924 --> 00:00:09.120
because they're they're the ones
who do the heavy lifting.

3
00:00:09.120 --> 00:00:12.160
They're the ones out there
serving their communities.

4
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:17.280
And you know, with the IMLS
funding, it helps us help them.

5
00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:21.739
And so we're very appreciative
of everything that the federal

6
00:00:21.739 --> 00:00:23.280
funding does for Wyoming.

7
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:27.240
No matter what happens on the
ground in their counties, there

8
00:00:27.240 --> 00:00:30.720
are some core functions that
will not fall through the floor.

9
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:34.811
What it means is that the
databases, they support lifelong

10
00:00:34.811 --> 00:00:39.162
learning, everything from, you
know, interactive ebooks through

11
00:00:39.162 --> 00:00:42.901
book flex, through the, the
LinkedIn learning, the the

12
00:00:42.901 --> 00:00:46.844
things that people need for
their career advancement, for

13
00:00:46.844 --> 00:00:47.999
entrepreneurship.

14
00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:52.652
So it really allows us to
support people in improving

15
00:00:52.652 --> 00:00:55.880
their lives at every phase of
their lives.
