Today, Assemblyman Brian Curran (Lynbrook-21st A.D.) announced the approval of state aid to help with construction projects at local libraries. This aid is supported by a $34 million capital fund appropriation that was included in the 2022-2023 state budget. The local libraries in the 21st Assembly District receiving awards are the Baldwin Public Library, Freeport Public Library, Malverne Public Library, Rockville Centre Public Library and Oceanside Public Library.

“I am very pleased to announce that five of our local libraries will be receiving much-needed funds to renovate. Local libraries are invaluable to our communities, as centers for not only reading but learning and exploration as well. Many happy memories are made in local libraries, and I cannot wait to see how they put these funds to great use to better our community,” said Curran.
