11/4/2019

$2,000 Library Census Equity Fund mini-grant opportunity for libraries in or near Census 2020 hard-to-count communities.
See below for an interesting grant opportunity (with…of course….a quickly approaching deadline for application).  Take a look at it and let us know if there is any way NFLS can be of help...
The American Library Association just announced a nifty $2,000 Library Census Equity Fund mini-grant opportunity for libraries in or near Census 2020 hard-to-count communities. The proposed activity must be related to 2020 Census preparations or outreach by the library to serve a hard-to-count population. Eligible activities include (but are not limited to):
  • Expanding the library’s technology capacity for use by people completing the census questionnaire online, e.g. buying an additional tablet computer or internet hotpsot
  • Community outreach activities using library facilities, staff, or resources, e.g. hosting a program or event at the library
  • Buying or printing materials related to the Census (e.g. books or media) for use in library programs, displays, outreach or events
Applications are due soon, so I would appreciate you all sharing this opportunity soon and widely. Here’s the full timeline:
  • November 22, 2019: Deadline for applications
  • December 2019: ALA will notify selected grantees
  • April 1, 2020: Last date for grantees to begin activities (activities may begin prior to this date)
  • April 30, 2020: Last date for grantees to complete activities
  • May 15, 2020: Deadline for grantees to submit a short report of activity to ALA (less than 100 words with photo)
Please don’t hesitate to reach out with question or suggestions.
Thanks,
-Cindy
