The Friends of the Long Valley Laytonville Public Library have raised about $40,000 since 2015, partly from the sale of an old Bookmobile. In June of last year, the county got over $60,000 from a USDA Rural Development Grant to purchase a book collection, furniture, and other materials for the library. And voter-approved library taxes, which started fourteen years ago, contributed millions to the county library system.
While large four-year institutions like the University of California San Diego and San Diego State University offer courses on aspects of the brewing industry, one of the most interesting programs is found at a community college.
