Monadnock Ledger-Transcript Published: 1/12/2021 11:18:23 AM Local library staff are getting training in how to have tough conversations about topics such as race and gender, and the future of the library within the community, with assistance from an American Libraries Association grant. The modest grants – each for about $3,000 – from the ALA’s Libraries Transforming Communities initiative will help train the staff at the Peterborough Town Library, Jaffrey Public Library and the James A. Tuttle Library in Antrim to facilitate conversations this year on a topic of interest to the community, and help fund materials to help make those conversations happen and pay for keynote speakers.
