Subject: [Ohiolink] State Library announces availability of LSTA minigrant funds

Please excuse multiple postings...

The State Library of Ohio is pleased to announce the availability of Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) funds for minigrant proposals. Under the minigrant program, any type of library may apply for funds in one of the following categories:  Technological Innovation, Automation, Targeted Populations, and Services to Youth.

A maximum of $24,000 in federal funds may be requested.  A cash match of 25% of the total project amount is required.  Proposals are due at the State Library by 4:00 p.m. October 24, 2012.

Approved proposals will run from April 1, 2013 through August 31, 2013.

The Request for Proposal, Application Guidelines and other documents to assist with preparing the application can be found at:  http://library.ohio.gov/lpd/lsta-minigrants

This is the last round of grants to be awarded under the LSTA Five Year Plan 2008-2012.  One of the objectives of the new LSTA Five-Year Plan 2013-2017 is to review and revise all LSTA grant categories and the sub-award process.  Staff has a schedule to review grant programs over the next year.  Prior to the release of the next LSTA Request for Proposal for full grants or minigrants, grant categories, the RFP and the application materials will be evaluated and revised to best meet LSTA federal and state priorities.  It is staffs intent that the grant cycles will remain on the same timeline as they are currently.

If you have any questions about the LSTA minigrants or the LSTA program in general, please contact Missy Lodge, Head, Library Programs and Development at mlodge at library.ohio.gov<mailto:mlodge at library.ohio.gov>,  614-644-6914 or 800-686-1532.
