The LSTA grant process has undergone a major change. The process is now in two stages. The first stage is the proposal. A proposal is required in order to proceed with a full application. The proposals will be reviewed by State Library and Archives staff and members of the State Council on Libraries and Literacy and libraries with successful proposals will be invited to continue with the application process.
More information is included in the proposal instructions.
Proposal workshops are being scheduled and are expected to be in the first two weeks of March is several parts of the state. The calendar of workshops will be sent out under a separate mailing and also posted on the NSLA website. The proposal workshops will introduce the new LSTA process and discuss the proposal format and preparation. The new LSTA applications will also be available at the proposal workshops. The new application will be available on the web after the completion of the proposal.
