PLA romance Writers of America Library Grant
Romance Writers of America Library Grant
http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/pla/plaawards/romancewritersgrant/index.cfm
I’m including this, because it is so unique and (I think) a good example of just how specific a grant and its requirements can be. It struck me as an odd PLA grant, as PLA doesn’t have too many grants to offer. Also, the PLA seems to mostly offer “awards” to individuals. Here is a description of the grant:
The Romance Writers of America Library Grant is designed to provide a public library the opportunity to build or expand its romance fiction collection and/or host romance fiction programming. The grant consists of $4,500 to be used toward the purchase of romance fiction, author honorariums and travel expenses, and other applicable program expenses.
The process requires submission of an online application. The contact information is the ALA:
American Library Association | 50 E. Huron, Chicago IL 60611 | 1.800.545.2433
