The "Libraries
& Museums" Grant Index is of particular interest
to libraries and museums. Funds are available for
a broad range of libraries, including public, academic,
medical and special interest. They include support
in the form of awards, competitions, recruitment grants,
and collection or program development grants. Librarians
and museum directors may enhance the experiences and
services you offer through technology, through support
for public access, rural technology, augmenting collections
in the sciences and humanities, building collections
using technology, digitalizing and preserving collections,
creating websites for libraries, or integrating e-fundraising
into public library websites. Museums benefit from
non-profit funding for the arts which may have a technology
emphasis or component. Don't miss this chance to consider
these opportunities for your library or museum. The
"Libraries
& Museums" Grant Index is valuable for you
as a librarian. You may also want to choose additional
Grant Indexes for different sectors to serve your
library patrons.
