Measurable Outcome(s)

Our measurable outcomes will be shown with the interest and usage of the films themselves but we as a Society will be able to use the information the films have and place it onto our Facebook and Website and share with those who are unable to get to our museum or even our state but are still wanting to learn about our town and surrounding areas. Without these films our reader in which we have received on a pervious grant would sit alone.
