The Carnegie-Whitney Grant
provides an award that is based on a special fund first established by
Andrew Carnegie in 1902, “the income of which is to be applied to the
preparation and publication of such reading lists, indexes and other
bibliographical and library aids as will be especially useful in the
circulating libraries of this country.” The Carnegie Fund was
subsequently enhanced by a merger with a fund established by James Lyman
Whitney in 1910. The Publishing Committee, a standing committee of the
American Library Association, administers the grant.
The Carnegie-Whitney Grant
provides grants for the preparation, either in print and/or
electronically, of popular or scholarly reading lists, webliographies,
indexes and other guides to library resources that will be useful to
users of all types of libraries in the United States.
Deadline 11/2/12
