This facility has been built and furnished through the generosity of:
The Townspeople of Williamsburg,
who appropriated $500,000.
The Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners,
who awarded Williamsburg a
Public Library Construction Grant of $590,423.
The Massachusetts Historical Commission,
which awarded historic preservation matching grants totaling $82,500.
The National Endowment for the Humanities,
which awarded a Challenge Grant including $60,000 for construction.
and
More than 750 private contributors,
in Williamsburg and scores of other towns, cities and states, who gave
over $1 million in cash, materials, furnishings and labor — almost half the
total cost of the project — because they believed it was worth investing in.
