Newspaper microfilming grant
I worked with the Mower County Historical Society (MCHS) to write a grant proposal to get all Mower County newspapers microfilmed that are not currently on microfilm. The Lyle Tribune has decades of newspapers in the MCHS library that are not yet on microfilm. There are also many newspapers from Grand Meadow, LeRoy and Austin too. The total proposal is about $30,000 so it qualifies as a large grant. There is a review period now where we will be able to make updates and then the final proposal is due on September 25.
