See https://www.imls.gov/news/calling-small-libraries-imls-opens-grant-program-second-year for the announcement. This is the second time they have offered this program.

The deadline is December 2, 2019, and the informational webinar (which will be archived) is September 12.

Benzonia Public Library in northern Michigan was awarded funding in the first round. Be aware that federal grants can be time-consuming (but the payoff is delicious!). For some tips on grantwriting, check out the University of Michigan School of Information's online course on Grantwriting and Crowdfunding, which you can audit for free!
