Public libraries may now apply for a 2012 Summer Reading mini-grant! The Colorado State Library will award a limited number of mini-grants of $200 each for public libraries to support, enhance, and promote the Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP) statewide summer reading themes in their local communities.
The themes for 2012 are “Dream Big – READ!” (children), “Own the Night” (teens), and “Between the Covers” (adults). Priority will be given to libraries below 10,000 Legal Service Area population and libraries in non-metro locations. Per IMLS guidelines, the mini-grant funding should be spent on books.
To be eligible for a 2012 mini-grant, libraries must have submitted the 2011 summer reading report AND be registered for the 2012 statewide summer reading themes.
APPLY NOW!
DEADLINE: Friday, January 31, 2012

Just a reminder that applications for the Power Libraries Program are due today, March 26, 2009.
Note: since many of you are experiencing trouble faxing your signature page (this comes at the end of the application) due to snow, staff being out on spring break, etc., please just send the signature page as soon as possible. If that means next week or first thing the week after, that’s fine.
Please contact me with any questions. I am not sure if CDE will be leaving early because of the snow, so just in case, my personal e-mail is michelle.gebhart@gmail.com, and my cell phone is 720-366-2349,
