As we move into the new year with events being virtual, please keep in mind that the Library of Michigan Continuing Education stipends can be used for virtual events.

 

For virtual conferences or workshops, LM will reimburse the actual cost of registration for accepted applicants up to $500.  With this funding opportunity consider attending an event virtually if you can. During these hectic times, it can help to learn from our colleagues about how they are handling the issues and needs of their communities.

 

Finally, to allow for more flexibility for library staff, LM is temporarily reviewing applications monthly rather than quarterly. We will review applications from the previous month the first week of the next month. Applications must be for events that are AFTER the review date (last day of the month).

 

Please read through the criteria at the link provided here to find answers to your questions first then apply at
