ASSOCIATION GOALS:
The purpose of IAMSLIC is to provide an association for individuals
and organizations with an interest in library and information science,
especially as it applies to the recording, retrieval and dissemination of
knowledge and information in all aspects of aquatic and marine science and
their allied disciplines. The Association is supportive of efforts to
enhance the ability of developing countries to create, access, and share
information.
As surplus funds are available, IAMSLIC will support projects related to its
purpose through
small grants ($200-$2000) to its regional groups and members. Projects
should address a
clear need and involve partnerships at various levels. Examples of past
grants include the
$450 to the SAIL Regional Group in support of its annual meeting, $500 for a
representative
from Chile to attend the Southampton Conference, and $2000 for the purchase
of ARIEL
equipment and software to enhance document delivery to the South Pacific
region.
GRANT CYCLE:
January: Announcement of the availability of grant funds will be
posted to the mailing list
and announced in newsletter. Guidelines are listed above.
14 February 2003: Complete grant proposals will be submitted to the
IAMSLIC secretary,
preferably in electronic form. The Secretary will forward copies to
all Executive Board
members.
February/March: The Executive Board will review the grant proposals
and will select projects for funding.
April/May: The grant recipients/projects will be announced in the
newsletter and on the listserv.
Monies for the awarded grants will be distributed.
October: Grant recipients will present a project summary or progress
report at
the Annual Conference. This report may be done in person or submitted
to the Secretary to
be read at one of the general business meetings.
October: At the Annual Conference, the Executive Board will review the
Association's budget to determine if sufficient surplus funds are
available to instigate a
granting cycle and, if so, will determine how much will be made
available.
