Today, Carnegie Corporation of New York announced a new grant opportunity that will invest $5 million in public libraries to support English language learning and youth programs in U.S. communities. The new initiative, Libraries as Pillars of Education and Democracy<https://carnegie.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a59f1f3dd67c124399b749f97&id=d1789f41a5&e=5262461873>, will help public libraries deliver critical services that promote socioeconomic mobility, civic participation, and social belonging.

We are prioritizing libraries with existing programs in either of two areas:

  *   English language and literacy services for adults that improve English language proficiency and job readiness skills.
  *   College readiness and access activities that help teens improve their college preparedness by enhancing academic skills, supporting students in the college admission process, developing leadership and civic skills, and engaging families in the transition to college.
