The document outlines the goals and plans for a Library Star grant-funded initiative at the La Crosse Public Library. The goals are to 1) provide field trips to the library for all second graders in the city between January and May, and 2) strengthen ongoing partnerships with schools through shared programming. The initiative will involve taking second graders on tours of the library in 15-minute rotations to explore the facilities and learn about resources from library staff.
