[Michlib-l] Deadline 12/2/2019: IMLS announces call for new round of funding for small/rural libraries, including school libraries

[Kristin Fontichiaro]

See
https://www.imls.gov/news/calling-small-libraries-imls-opens-grant-program-second-year
for
the announcement. This is the second time they have offered this program.

The deadline is December 2, 2019, and the informational webinar (which will
be archived) is September 12.

Benzonia Public Library in northern Michigan was awarded funding in the
first round. Be aware that federal grants can be time-consuming (but the
payoff is delicious!). For some tips on grantwriting, check out the
University of Michigan School of Information's online course on
Grantwriting and Crowdfunding

which you can audit for free!
