Sharing libraries with the world through the Internet requires funding. This

grant proposal process. Participants will learn about tools to help identify
sources of funding and create a strong proposal package. The development of
various components of a proposal will also be covered, including the
statement of need, preparing a timeline, outlining project objectives or
outcomes, detailing project activities, preparing and presenting a clear
budget, and outlining evaluation plans. Participants will write a grant
proposal incorporating all three phases: research, preparation and writing.
