Online course on grant writing

Introduction to Grants for Preservation: Live Online Class
SOLINET, Inc., the Southeastern Library Network

Finding the funds for preservation projects in your institution can
often be a challenge. Fortunately there are outside sources of
funding available for preservation projects, if you know where to
look and how to apply for them. This two-hour live online session is
an introduction to grant funding and the process of writing a grant
proposal. Topics covered include: types of grants, preparing to
apply, elements of a grant proposal, tips on grant administration,
outcome measurement, and a brief overview of the most common grants
awarded to archives, libraries, and other cultural institutions in
the United States. Emphasis will be placed on grant funding for
preservation projects. Small institutions are encouraged to
participate.

Two dates are available:

    1. Friday, February 24, 2006,

Both classes are from 2-4pm
