Description: "Providing targeted access to the most promising major givers, The Big Book of Library Grant Money 2006 is the largest directory available, pulled from an authoritative and up-to-the-minute database of library-specific funders." "This forward-looking edition includes nearly 2,400 private and corporate foundations and givers that have either indicated an interest in giving money to libraries or have already done so. Potential donors in The Big Book are profiled with contact and portfolio information, past contributions summary and analysis, and application information. With historical data, you can track contributions and assets and predict future giving patterns. Offering you the most "hooks" for connecting with actual people, The Big Book also provides contact information for nearly 16,000 foundation officers and directors. As an added feature, ALA's own development office experts have included tips on winning grants for libraries." "Tailored to be the definitive sourcebook for identifying library-friendly givers, the 2006 edition is a must-have for libraries seeking a share of the nearly 12 billion dollars set aside by Big Book givers."
