Many library professionals assume that receiving grant awards begins with writing proposals, when in reality the most important work happens long before anyone starts writing. Join this informative webinar to learn:
- the difference between grantwriting and grantseeking
- where to start looking
- all of the steps for grantseeking success
- how various staffers can help with this collaborative process
- tips for making your grant proposals stand out
When we all engage in collaborative grantseeking, partnership development, and community-relationship-building, we reap results beyond accessing external funding. Grantseeking leads to increased visibility, more obvious relevance in our communities, and long-term sustainability of libraries.
