Grant Recipient 2022

The Virts Miller Foundation awarded The Friends of Thomas Balch Library a grant in the 2022 grant cycle that was used to purchase a research tool for the library called NEWSBANK. Additionally, the grant was used to fund the library’s lecture series.

 

“The Friends of the Thomas Balch Library are deeply grateful to the Virts Miller Foundation for their generous grant, which has significantly bolstered the library’s resources and programs. This support enabled the acquisition of NEWSBANK, a comprehensive digital archive of newspapers essential for research, and the continuation of the Thomas Balch Library Series, a popular lecture series that enriches our community’s cultural and intellectual fabric. We commend the Virts Miller Foundation for their commitment to enhancing educational opportunities and scholarly resources.”
