[Libs-Or] PL Grant: OCLC Community Engagement Award (Apps due 5/31)

[Jennifer Maurer]

Hi,

Here's a grant opportunity for public libraries - the OCLC Community Engagement Award<https://www.oclc.org/en/about/awards/community-engagement-award.html>:

How have you created impact and extended your reach? Public libraries continuously transform to better support local communities. We are excited to recognize and celebrate their significant community engagement work with three $5,000 awards.

Between now and May 31, 2020, tell us about a current project, or one completed within the past year, that impacts and extends your public library's reach by engaging with your community. How do you build stronger relationships? How do you partner to meet local needs? How do you encourage better conversations? How do you create programming that positively impacts your community?

Three $5,000 winning library programs will be chosen by a panel of OCLC member library leaders. We'll contact each winner prior to a public announcement in July 2020.

Apps are due May 31st, and OCLC membership is not required.

I learned about the grant from the Library Grants blog<http://librarygrants.blogspot.com/>.

Thanks,
Jen
