LSTA Grant Workshop Series: Grant Overview

If writing a library grant is a mystery, attend the following:

Monday, December 7, 2009 from 2:00 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. ET
Wednesday, January 6, 2010 from 10:00 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. ET

In the online classroom

There is a series of online workshops that will assist publicly supported libraries with the preparation of Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) grants for the 2010 application cycle. These workshops are provided free of charge and are intended to help with the grant writing process for LSTA grants.

The first of the series is a Grant Overview, which will be held twice. Dorothy Frank and Marian Deeney from the State Library and Archives of Florida will provide an overview of the LSTA guidelines and application process.

Topics to be covered in the Overview include:

· Eligibility requirements for the LSTA grant program

· LSTA grant review and funding process

· Grant categories

· Components of a proposal

The next three workshops in the series will be specific discussions on How to Establish Your Need; How to Write an Outcomes Plan; and How to Write an Action Plan and Budget Narrative. You may take as many of them as you would like and you do not need to take prior sessions in order to take later ones.

For more information about these sessions, contact Dorothy Frank at 850.245.6631 or dafrank@dos.state.fl.us. For more about writing a literacy grant contact Sandy Newell at 850.245.6624 or snewell@dos.state.fl.us
