TechSoup for Libraries Grant Series: One Hour a Week to Success!

This grant training series using blog posts on TechSoup for Libraries.

Audience: You! Librarians who are reluctant to write grants.

Wish you knew more about applying for grant funding? Does it seem overwhelming and you wonder how to get started? TechSoup is here to help! Our new grant series, Successful Grants in One Hour a Week, will provide you with small steps that take you through the entire grant process. Weekly blog posts will outline your steps for the week so you’ll be prepared to apply for a basic grant before the end of the year.

There are many library and federal grant opportunities with deadlines in December, so if you are trying to get a grant application out the door, we are just in time to help. Or if you just want to read along with us, you’ll be ready to start grant work in 2011.

Stephanie Gerding has had grant success in all aspects of the process, as a grant writer, reviewer, project coordinator, consultant, and trainer. She has co-authored two books on grants (Winning Grants just released by Neal-Schuman), as well as the Library Grants Blog, a free resource for grant opportunities, and UNT’s Grant Basics tutorial (also available through WebJunction).
