The East Polk Library in Ducktown, Tenn., will receive about $16,000 in grants to provide computer technology and training.

“The grants will fund seven laptop computers, software, wiring, furniture and customer instruction,” said Blake Fontenay, communications director for Tennessee Secretary of State Tré Hargett.

The funding should be delivered this fall, said David Collett, director of the USDA Rural Development Chattanooga area office.
