Grants for Libraries Workshop

Discover the confidence and knowledge you need to have success with
library grants. Learn who gives funding for libraries, the easiest
method for writing grant proposals, and real-life library-grant success
stories. 

Stephanie Gerding <http://stephaniegerding.com/>  co-wrote the notable 
Grants for Libraries: A How-To-Do-It Manual
<http://www.neal-schuman.com/db/5/505.html>  & CD-ROM (Neal-Schuman,
2006), and publishes the only free resource for all library grant
opportunities, Library Grants Blog <http://librarygrants.blogspot.com/>
. She was also the "Bringing in the Money" columnist for public
libraries for two years. 

Gerding will share an easy-to-follow grant process cycle, including
planning for success; discovering and designing projects; researching
and selecting the right funder; creating and submitting the proposal;
and evaluating and continuing the process. Tip sheets, valuable
worksheets and resource lists will be provided to make grant work easier
for you. Novice and experienced librarians, students, administrators and
anyone who seeks or uses grant funding will find invaluable and
practical guidance.
