State Library Announces LSTA Statewide Continuing Education Grants

 

The State Library is pleased to announce the availability of Library
Service and Technology Act (LSTA) Statewide Continuing Education grant
funds.  The RFP has been posted at:
http://winslo.state.oh.us/publib/lsta98.html  (Click on continuing
education on the list of grant programs).

 

Under the new LSTA Statewide Continuing Education grant program, two
grant rounds will be available each year.  For the first round,
proposals are due at the State Library by 4:00 p.m. October 1, 2006 for
CE programs which will take place between January 1, 2007 and June 30,
2007.  A second RFP will be released in January for programs scheduled
between July and December.  

 

In order to be funded, continuing education proposals must be made
available statewide. Funded proposals must include instructional
objectives with a clear methodology to meet those objectives and an
evaluation scheme to assess whether the learning objectives were met and
the impact this project will have on library staff and eventually,
library users.  The following will not be considered for funding:
Projects which benefit only a local audience and Applications for
support of a keynote speaker.  The State Library encourages partnership
and collaborative projects.

 

A maximum of $24,000 in federal funds may be requested.  A hard dollar
match of 25% of the total project amount is required.
