<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Franklin Gothic Book",sans-serif">In July 2023, Josephine Community Library Foundation purchased property to serve as the future site of a new downtown Grants Pass library with the help of many generous donors
and grant funders. A new, larger building is proposed to replace the current county-owned structure that the public library is currently operating out of. The new library will help revitalize and expand that part of downtown. This visionary project promises
to be more than just a library — it's a community hub that will ignite economic growth, enhance downtown walkability, and bring people together in rural southern Oregon. We are sharing this video with the hope that it will inspire or spark ideas for ways to
promote your library’s role in local economic development.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
