Library Receives Zanett Grant; Offers DVD Cleaning Services

The Ouray Public Library received a $1,000 grant from the Zanett Foundation. The grant was designated for the purchase of an Elite 60™ Disc Repair and Maintenance System.

“Our patrons increasingly are taking advantage of our movie and audio book collection,” explains Library Director Chris Reece. “We are thrilled that these items are getting so much use, but as a result, we find that they require additional maintenance to ensure that we can keep the items in good condition.”

The disc repair and maintenance system also will be available for patrons’ items. Movies and audio books can be dropped off to be cleaned and repaired on Wednesdays. The items will be available for pick-up the following Wednesday. The charge for cleaning and repair is $1.00 per disc. The money raised will go toward maintaining the library’s collection of movies and audio books.
