Grant funding provides libraries with the opportunity to offer programs and services to the community that may not fit into the library’s regular budget. If the process of applying for and managing a grant feels overwhelming, join us for this webinar to discuss strategies for success that can benefit libraries of all sizes. Funders are often interested in a diverse set of applicants and communities to distribute funding to, and this session will help you feel more confident and empowered to pursue these opportunities for your library.
Participants will learn to:
– Seek and evaluate grant opportunities
– Consider the alignment of the library and the funder’s missions
– Develop organizational support for a proposal
– Submit a strong application
