Welcome

LET’S TALK GRANTS! If you are interested in securing quality literature for your students –you are in the right spot! Whether you have never written a grant before or are an experienced grant-writer, we offer two grants throughout the year that could be awarded to your library. They are the Readers’ Choice Book Award Grant and the Feed Your Need Grant. The LBSS Endowment Fund trustees are dedicated to “providing the very best books to youth in Illinois.” The grants are listed above along with all of the links to assist you in writing a successful grant. Check the calendar so you will never miss another important registration deadline!

Still unsure about writing a grant? Attend one of our workshops throughout the year and at the AISLE Conference.  Hear from librarians who have administered a successful grant and gather tips for writing your grant. PD information will be posted here as details become available. Good luck! Can’t wait to read your grant!!!
