Dear APLA members: This is a reminder that applications for General Activities Fund grants are now being accepted and are to be submitted to the APLA Finance Committee, care of the convener. The Committee encourages you to submit applications by September 15, the earliest date at which proposals will be considered. Applications will be accepted after that date as funding allows. Total funding for all projects available in 2011-2012 is $1,000. The General Activities Fund provides grants for projects or activities which serve to further the aims and objectives of APLA. Applications should state topic and date of activity, relevancy to the Atlantic library community and APLA, sponsoring bodies, estimated costs and revenues, and a contact person.
